Reader Action Items

• For founders: Enterprise infrastructure (databases, spend automation) and biotech are commanding premium rounds and valuations. If your startup solves a developer pain point or addresses clinical gaps, expect strong investor appetite. Plan your Series B/C pitch to emphasize unit economics and gross margin expansion.

• For investors: Mega-rounds (>$500M) now require mega-valuations (>$10B). Corgi's velocity (4x in 12 months) shows how fast winners can move. Seek early conviction in categories (insurance automation, space/AI convergence) where 5-10 year TAM expansion is evident.

• For operators: Supabase, Ramp, and Corgi are all hiring aggressively across engineering, sales, and operations. If you're seeking high-growth SaaS roles, enterprise infrastructure and fintech offer the strongest near-term equity and salary packages post-mega-round.
