SuccessFactors CEO Lars Dalgaard to Present at Stanford University's Thought Leadership Seminar Series
Stanford University's European Entrepreneurship and Innovation Thought Leaders Seminar is a weekly speaker series that presents industry leaders from Europe's high-tech startup, venture finance, corporate and university research and technology commercialization communities to share their insights and experiences with aspiring and veteran entrepreneurs from Silicon Valley.
Entitled, "From Denmark to Silicon Valley: The Rise of SuccessFactors from People Performance to Business Results," Dalgaard will discuss how SuccessFactors was born during a challenging economic time in Silicon Valley in 2001 and how he brought together the concept, leadership and technology backbone to create an on-demand software company that revolutionized the way businesses and employees work. He'll discuss how he led SuccessFactors to become a public company and the challenges and hard decisions he made to invest in massive growth to build an emerging powerhouse in business software. Additionally, Lars will speak to how his own global journey took him from Denmark to Silicon Valley, from furniture mover to CEO, and how he brought his ideas and innovations to market as SuccessFactors.
Today, SuccessFactors is the fastest growing software company in the world, a company that has risen from an unknown start-up to a market leader, and now boasts a massive and growing 4.7 million strong user base with more than 2,700 customers in 185 countries.
Dalgaard will present from 4:15-5:30pm on May 11 at Skilling Auditorium at Stanford University. For more information on this event, please visit: http://www.europeanentrepreneursatstanford.com/.
