Join Alon Arvatz as he shares his advice about how to go back to your roots as a company when faced with product and market challenges.

Cybersecurity expert Alon Arvatz has long anticipated threats before they happen, but as Co-founder of threat intelligence platform, IntSights, which was recently acquired by Rapid7 for $335M, he has also learned to look to the past.

At a Founders Network keynote presentation on January 19, Arvatz will share his advice about how to go back to your roots as a company when faced with product and market challenges. In his role leading strategy, Arvatz helped Insights realign with its original mission – to democratize threat intelligence – after a rocky period. He will suggest ways founders can generate renewed belief in themselves, humility and a willingness to consult with outside experts, which he believes can lead to success. Arvatz will offer an inspiring alternative to the conventional wisdom about pivoting, a path to renewal that is based on a return to company origins.

You’ll learn:

  • Why SMEs may represent the future of threat intelligence
  • What all companies can learn from the cybersecurity market
  • How to handle friction between product and marketing teams
  • When and how to trust your founder instincts

Testimonials

If you don't have a cohort group in something like Founders Network that you can develop long-term relationships with and discuss the same topics that come up with people that you already know, you're probably missing out on something very important.

David Plonsky

The number one advantage is the law of compound interest. The longer you stay in a very high-quality network the strong and more authentic relationships you build.

Chaitanya Vaidya

We know each other's business and we know each other's struggles. Having a personal relationship with other founders that is completely confidential and completely authentic gives you a lot of great advice.

Doug Lessing

FN manages my network for me by connecting me with other founders in my specific industry sector. I've been able to explore business development opportunities, partnerships, etc.

Becky Splitt

We just saw the first Mexican unicorn come to life this same week which is a fantastic idea. Being part of the Founders Network makes a lot of sense. We see that the Mexico City chapter is growing substantially.

Max Linares

There's a lot of great stuff going on even now in San Francisco. I've found Founders Network has been a great resource for me and for all of the founders I know during these tough times.

Jarie Bolander

It allowed me to meet people who had done this before that had the experience. I was able to explain an issue very briefly and they were able to give me a very detailed response on how they addressed it.

Terence Finn

I've used the platform to discover advice, connections, resources, discounts, on important services, connections to investors, and practice on how to pitch. The kind of conversations you can't get anywhere else on youtube or google searches.

Alexandra Greenhill

I see Founders Network as one of those necessary resources in the Chicagoland area.

Jason Jacobsohn

The Black Founders initiative allows me to shape this program where we can inspire, engage, and support Black Founders.
