Auren has had one of the most storied careers of SaaS founders in the Valley and is known for having an often unique and contrarian perspective. In this conversation we discussed why the best businesses are at the intersection of value creation, personal advantage and a contrarian perspective; whether businesses should target niches or broad markets; and the advantages of being older as computing power becomes more powerful.
