In this episode of Second Acts, Krish is joined by Docebo’s (NASDAQ: DCBO) CEO, Alessio Artuffo.

Alessio talks about: Docebo’s many second acts from the early days of bootstrapping to their recent AI-native reinvention, what they have learned about sustaining balanced growth as a public SaaS company, how “clear, unarguable” enterprise value (not AI hype) drives their product and monetization decisions, the internal idea-to-execution value chain of pricing ownership, why focus (not TAM) is the big constraint in horizontal markets, a Lencioni classic he keeps going back to, and more.
