A Cloud Seller's Guide to Finding Prospects in the 2021 Forbes Cloud 100
This week, Forbes published its annual Cloud 100 list, in collaboration with Bessemer Venture Partners and Salesforce Ventures. Now in its sixth year, the Cloud 100 is a ranking of the world’s top private cloud companies, recognizing standouts in tech’s hottest category; from small startups to private-equity-backed giants.
The companies on the list are selected according to "growth, sales, valuation, and culture – as well as a reputation score derived in consultation with 34 CEO judges and executives from their public-cloud-company peers."
Intricately data reveals the top five companies on this list spend a combined $84 million on cloud infrastructure each month.
