In AI-Tech Park’s commitment to uncovering the path toward realizing enterprise AI, we recently sat down with Chris Lynch, an esteemed figure in the industry and accomplished Executive Chairman and CEO of AtScale. With a remarkable track record of raising over $150 million in capital and delivering more than $7 billion in returns to investors, Chris possesses invaluable knowledge about what it takes to achieve remarkable results in the fields of AI, data, and cybersecurity.

During our interview, Chris shared his insights into the key leadership qualities that drive success when building a company.  He also shared the immense value of the semantic layer and how it empowers organizations to unlock the full potential of their data. Additionally, we explored the exciting future of the convergence between data, analytics, and AI, and how it paves the way for enterprise AI to become a tangible reality.

Chris, please tell us a bit about yourself and your extensive experience in the tech industry. How has each of your experiences prepared you for your next role?

We are moving into the fourth economic downcycle of my career following the downturns of 1990,2000,2008 and 2022. The macroeconomic causes might be different but the outcomes are likely to be the same. It will be a time of reckoning for over-funded, over-hyped, over-valued technology companies.  In particular, data, AI, and cybersecurity companies will face continued pressure to cut costs and streamline operations as this herd of tech unicorns struggles to demonstrate viable paths to generating returns for investors and employees.

My predictions for 2023 are simple:

As the economic softness persists, there will be a contraction in enterprise spending on technology as management teams figure out the duration of this downturn.  But smart spending on data and analytics solutions will persist as leading teams figure out how to outpace their competitors.

In the second half of 2023, I expect some consolidation within the realms of data, analytics, AI, and cybersecurity. The largest technology companies will put their cash to work and take advantage of lower valuations.

It is my hope that venture-backed technology companies' management and boards will re-think equity compensation for their employees in order to keep them motivated and motivated. My simple advice for investors and leaders is not to panic and stop investments. Instead, be selective and invest in great ideas, great teams, and great people.
