    Benoît Dageville @ RAISE 2025: Zero to IPO and Beyond. From Startup to Snowfall Building Snowflake

    Benoît Dageville, Roxanne Varza

    After founding Snowflake in 2012 to decouple data storage and compute, co-founders Benoit Dageville and Thierry Kremer steered the company to the most expensive software IPO in history while rejecting acquisition offers to maintain their independent vision. Today, the enterprise serves thousands of clients including OpenAI and Disney by abstracting infrastructure complexity, a strategy that enables users to reduce processing times from weeks to minutes. The platform now leverages AI to ingest unstructured data and democratize analytics, allowing non-technical employees to access enterprise-grade insights without deep SQL expertise.
