public cloud. we think the synergy of what we see at the infrastructure level and what they see in the application layer creates visibility that no other company can provide. we are very excited about it. i was there yesterday, 15 minutes after we made the announcement, i addressed the employee base and i think they are excited as well. a good day for us. >> i have a couple of questions about the deal itself. you paid a pretty high price, $3.7 billion. there were reports the ipo would go for half of that. it is a start up, so it is not making money. is it dilutive and at what point does it become accretive? >> when we looked at the company, there were a few things we looked at. they are the best company in this space and are growing twice as fast as their nearest competitor. third, they are growing faster

did not go public, but the ipo roadshow was very strong. within a couple of days the offering was contrived. the best data we have is that if we had gone public, it would have been a very strong ipo and would have likely traded up. caroline: i think it is fascinating. you have been on the board of appdynamics. greylock helped this company grow, it was the first offices provided. they were working in graylock with year when this company was first born in 2008. do you think, apart from the price tag, cisco is the way to go? >> every company has to make their own determination whether to continue public or be acquired at some point in their life cycle. cisco is a world-class technology company, a world-class management team, just incredible resources. they can be an excellent home for appdynamics, both extending

reach for the product line very quickly across the world's largest enterprises and also in terms of synergy with the infrastructure monitoring data that cisco has. combining that did it the application and business performance data that appdynamics has can be powerful. caroline: what does this say to the highly valued unicorns at the moment looking at the market and wondering whether to ipo, to be acquired? do you think this might put off others going public? >> i don't think so. i think the indication from the roadshow that the company undertook is that the public markets seem to be very open and very receptive for the best technology businesses. i was on the roadshow, the group met with cisco two days ago and it was standing room only. the room was full of public market investors, a very rich dialogue. just this morning, my email is full of messages from a number of public market investors

around the country saying, congratulations, we really wanted to purchase stock in this company. caroline: now when you are looking at the money you have just -- you have returned your fund and then some. where do you next put money when you are looking at greylock? you have shown you are right stock picker. >> we are fortunate to have two very strong practices, enterprise technology and consumer. i spent my time on the enterprise side. enterprise really focused on the world's 20,000 largest companies, which is where the world i.t. budget lies. maybe just two i am intrigued by right now is taking ai and machine learning and applying it to use cases that can be deployed in very large companies. you are seeing value in that. and customer and business value. the other is cyber security, which continues to be an area very opportune.

ebay relying on it sellers is really the blood of the system there. you have immediate scale. you see amazon dipping more into their marketplace business, and this is because it enables a beautiful scale dynamic where anyone anywhere can list and sell products, and that empowerment was something i knew that we pursued, but i know it is fueling a lot of the ebay growth and success. caroline: apologies there. you are ahead of loyalty i believe. michael: yes. caroline: let us know about how you see the off-line to online world. our some of the players getting it when it comes to online retailing? michael: you are seeing an evolution where people are starting to recognize that there as an importance investing in new technology, where is 10 years ago, you had people establishing a viewpoint that mobile or internet was going to

be a short-lived trend. in walmart's acquisition of jet, you are seeing companies really double down on bridging a strategy that allows them to be players in the online world. one of the interesting ones was an investment by staples, and managed by q. i think that was an example of two companies working together that if you thought back, you would have a difficult time predicting that would happen. caroline: your app helps the integration of two apps. you have been helping at but in ebay itself. where do you see that going? >> button, a two and a half year old company, we are trying to correct some issues we see as broken in the mobile ecosystem. but it feels tremendous growth and opportunity in the death top

era -- desktop era. with ebay and other companies within our marketplace, the objective is to help them find buyers in places that it would be difficult for them to connect to, so the marketplace we created is designed to give them the opportunity to find more purchasers and places they would have difficulty building integrations into and scaling. because of the complexities of both platforms. caroline: let's dig into button. we understand you have a new funding round, $20 million on board, $34 million in total. talk to us about the expansion plans for this business. michael: it is really exciting. we started to validate where we see issue in the market today, and what button is trying to solve, linking structures is broken. when you utter the words i want during the desktop era, you would follow that with a query of google. if you say i want in today's world, you are often opening an app to solve that problem.

this paradigm has shifted. what hasn't shifted is the ease-of-use of creating links to build partnerships, experiences that solve what consumers need and what they are looking for. if you do a search result on a product page or a link from retailers, or looking for hotels and making a booking, so what this $20 million will do is to invest in the team. expand internationally, and double down on the strategy and performance we are starting to see come to the platform. caroline: on a day when we see a company about to go public get snapped up by a arrival. what is your dream for button? is it to go public, is it about acquisitions? michael: it is a great question. every entrepreneur thinks about it and dreams about it. my pledge when i started button

she decided to launch the app. >> there is a great need to communicate about the stories we all follow together. i mean by stories is news that have an ongoing series like the presidential elections or sports teams or television entertainment. these are the things we talk about at the water cooler at work, these are the things we talked about with our families in our living rooms, and today the current social media platforms are not ideal for conversations, so we feel like the opportunity is available. caroline: why is facebook and twitter not a good platform for conversations? in a way, many feel there was a lot put out in terms of viewpoints on the social media areas. >> that is a great question. they are both terrific companies and survey terrific purpose. if you look at facebook first, the market for personal content,

the things we do every day, the triumphs with our kids and friends, that is stratified with instagram being the whitest -- widest reached of top moments. phase book being the highlight reel from which you take your top moments, and snapchat being the in gauging conversation place for more intimate conversations. the same all happen with the professional content on twitter, whether it is news. twitter is moving to that brought reach, breaking news, not the safest and most conducive place for conversation. a lot of people feel nervous about trolls, worried that it is hard to use, but there is an opportunity for a more engaging, fun place to talk about the stories with friends that is consistent with what twitter is doing. caroline: how will raftr protect people? how will you ensure that there is not trolling?

how will you make sure you don't have the knock on effects of make news which it is of concern to so many? >> i don't know we can ever fully protect them. it is the internet after all. we will see some of those same issues, but we have tried to build in some safeguards. for example, we have our phone number as our registration, so you can't create 30 gmail accounts under different pseudonyms and troll in the same way possible on other networks, and that was a deliberate decision. in addition, we have content curators writing for us each week and linking the best content and governing what kinds of content is linked to the episodes we produce. we have a few safeguards we think will help make it safe, help make it less susceptible to some of the problems out there today. -- cure: sure nation ation has become a big key talking points and about whether human is better than automation. will you be mixing both, or is

it human people deciding which stories have the most authority and truth? >> we do a mix of both. first, our users vote with their feet. there are 30 million who follow on twitter and facebook the kind of stories we are offering. we looked at what people are talking about and what stories they want to talk about, and right away the human opinion is part of how we select and curate our stories. secondly, we are built around following stories, not people, and that is the key difference versus other social networks. what happens with other social networks is, you get information from your friends and those circles are getting wider and wider, and sometimes your interest don't overlap with your social graph. our is designed to just follow the stories you care about, so you are self-selecting. that is where the algorithm and technology comes in, serving only stories that are ones that you follow. caroline: that was the former yahoo! president and cofounder

>> this close to listing day, almost never. it was supposed to price tonight. tonight at 5:00 eastern was supposed to be the call to decide what the market value would be. cisco did come in at a very way -- $3.7 billion, higher than they $1.7 billion market by you they were going for. this is not a common occurrence. blue coat was bought by symantec, but they were not on the road yet. they had done meetings cover roadshows, investors were excited, and i guess cisco was more excited. and willing to pull the trigger on a buyout. caroline: can this become a theme. could roadshows make it all the more hot for tech companies to buy in? >> i certainly, we mentioned in our report this year that there are a lot of companies in the ipo pipeline, 30-40 companies that we are expecting have a good chance to come out this year, but we use the language

that they will have an exit. that does not necessarily mean an ipo. a lot of those companies in the mid range valuation group, not the big names, but the next tier down, they are willing to do a dual track and see what their options are. caroline: there is one man out there hoping this does not become a theme. we did speak to tom farley, the head president. have a listen. >> we are expecting 10 ipos in the next three weeks, including four on friday, three ipo's, and a closed-end fund. those 10 ipo's are big ipo's. caroline: this must have got bankers concerned? >> it does. the deals tom is talking about our companies outside of tech that we have been waiting to see for a while. education company, window and door maker, they are clearing

out the pipeline because last year was so choppy and equities, and now we have this trump rally and people are taking advantage of it. it is a different story with some of these tech companies. what i'm hearing investors want is to buy into them, but there is no supply, and there is still no supply. we heard about these companies going public, but it will be interesting to see who tests the waters next. all of these smaller names, but to your point, they are also the ones that when they are willing to write the checks that make the valuations, we have the same kind of companies that might get bought out by the likes of cisco. >> it was a record year after a record year, but there was something interesting about that record last year. a lot of the big-name technology companies were not the ones doing the buying. >> nothing from facebook,

nothing from amazon. >> all the traditional serial acquires were not buying. coroline: so the pool is becoming wider. >> yet, they have the funds to do it. they see these companies bringing disruptive technology, cloud, ai, deep learning, attractive assets disrupting every industry, so it is not just cisco, hp. it could be walmart, ford, p&g as well. caroline: how much do you think the carrot of donald trump's pledge for repatriation of cash, is that something that could make the cash load in the likes of cisco feel heavier? >> absolutely. if i think about what are the potential positives and negatives of the new administration, two negatives are potential higher regulatory review, tougher for big deals, and tougher for inbound deals.

the other potential negative is the growing interest rate him and does that make it harder to borrow money to do deals. on the backside, cash repatriation coming in, the ipo market opening up, and many companies getting ready to do in exit of some point. many people look at the emigration as a bad thing in terms of visas. if that becomes a problem, you could be a acquiring them instead of bringing the man. -- bringing them in. caroline: thank you for joining us today. still to come, google's moonshots coming back to earth. it has been a year since announcing its new holding company structure. we look at how it's side projects are faring ahead of thursday's earnings. this is bloomberg. ♪
