Nicolai Tangen sits down with Sridhar Ramaswamy, CEO of Snowflake, the data platform powering half the world's largest companies, to explore what's really happening at the frontier of data and AI. They dig into how Snowflake's consumption-based pricing sets it apart from traditional software models, why Sridhar now considers AI model companies a bigger competitive threat than anyone else in tech, and how AI agents are transforming everything from data pipelines to software engineering itself. Sridhar also reflects on the lessons learned from founding and failing with Neva, and shares the values of hard work, adaptability, and resilience that have shaped him from Tamil Nadu to the top of the tech industry.
