Just a quick post to share my slides from this year’s standing-room-only 2010 Digital Publishing Summit at the Plaza Hotel.
Thank you to everyone for attending!

I’m Dave Kellogg, advisor, director, consultant, angel investor, and blogger focused on enterprise software startups. I am an executive-in-residence (EIR) at Balderton Capital and principal of my own eponymous consulting business.
I bring an uncommon perspective to startup challenges having 10 years’ experience at each of the CEO, CMO, and independent director levels across 10+ companies ranging in size from zero to over $1B in revenues.
From 2012 to 2018, I was CEO of cloud EPM vendor Host Analytics, where we quintupled ARR while halving customer acquisition costs in a competitive market, ultimately selling the company in a private equity transaction.
Previously, I was SVP/GM of the $500M Service Cloud business at Salesforce; CEO of NoSQL database provider MarkLogic, which we grew from zero to $80M over 6 years; and CMO at Business Objects for nearly a decade as we grew from $30M to over $1B in revenues. I started my career in technical and product marketing positions at Ingres and Versant.
I love disruption, startups, and Silicon Valley and have had the pleasure of working in varied capacities with companies including Bluecore, Cyral, FloQast, GainSight, MongoDB, Recorded Future, and Tableau.
I currently sit on the boards of Alation (data intelligence), Scoro (work management), and SMA Technologies (workload automation).
I previously sat on the boards of Granular (agtech, acquired by DuPont), Aster Data (big data, acquired by Teradata), and Nuxeo (content services, acquired by Hyland), and Profisee (MDM, exited to Pamlico).
I periodically speak to strategy and entrepreneurship classes at the Haas School of Business (UC Berkeley) and Hautes Études Commerciales de Paris (HEC).

I’m certain I’m not the only person wondering – why is the philosophical West on the right side and not the left? I’d also be tempted to throw XQuery/XSL-FO onto the East and XSLT onto the West. MLS versus RETS is also a telling example.
Piers,
Great observation on the left/right thing and can’t believe I missed it. I think I knew I was talking to a East Coat audience, so I put them in the right column. Anyways, I’ll revised in future editions, unless I’m speaking in the Southern hemisphere.
I’m not sure XQuery is coastal, so to speak, though I do know plenty of users of both it and FO on the East Coast. But I also know lots of folks using XSLT, basically everywhere.
I assume MLS = multiple listing service (and not MarkLogic Server) and thus RETS = real-estate XML, in which I’d say you’re probably bang-on, though we don’t do much work with RETS directly.
Best,
Dave
