Tomorrow: From Incubation to IPO Hosted by bwtech@UMBC

The FireEye Story (And Why It Matters to Entrepreneurs)

If you are in the tech industry, you know the FireEye name. Whether you are an investor, customer or competitor, there is no denying the company seemingly took off running overnight. But many are unaware of the complete history of FireEye and how entrepreneurs can use FireEye as a case study to their own advantage for future growth. 


Don't miss bwtech@UMBC’s signature CyberInnovation Briefing to hear from the expert panel as they quickly travel through FireEye’s timeline of growth (and some hiccups along the way) to point out some key takeaways that help answer the larger questions:

  • How real is the “cybersecurity hype cycle?”

  • Why you should know the difference between a platform vs. point solution?

  • How can companies recognize if they are building a product or a feature?

  • How strategic and business model decisions have the potential to introduce conflicts?

  • Why entrepreneurs should be sensitive to market conditions?
