In 2021, We Minted 46 Unicorns a Month; Plus Weekly SaaS News and Updates

Every once in a while a startup just plain executes from Day 1. It doesn’t happen often, and it’s never quite as linear as it looks. But Samara’s incredible growth makes it look that way. After 18 months building, things just took off when they launched, going from $0 in 2017 to an incredible $500m in ARR in 2021, in just 5 years.

If you follow the public markets, you can see a lot of top SaaS stocks recently have been hit — hard. But let me share just a little perspective. SaaS and Cloud have been on an incredible tear the last decade, and especially the last 5 years, like we’ve never seen before. And every 12-18 months, there’s a bump. A mini-crash.

This Wednesday, December 15th we're hosting SaaStr Scale 2021! Streaming live. Our final digital mega-event of 2021. The playbooks to scaling to $100M and beyond to propel your growth into the new year with Reprise, Box, Asana, Databricks and More!

So if you haven’t noticed, public SaaS stocks have taken a big tumble recently as the market has gotten nervous about expensive SaaS and Cloud stocks. Cloud companies that saw slowing growth saw the biggest drop, but even leaders with top-tier growth and no deceleration in growth have still taken a hit.

With so many amazing sessions at SaaStr Annual 2021, we couldn’t possibly pick our favorites, so we dug into the most popular as selected by you! We know you (probably) didn’t catch all these sessions during Annual, so this is your chance to binge-watch all the great content.
