Our take

Sonatype has been a heavy weight in the world of supply chain management since 2008. Specializing in analzying and securing open-sopurce code, it plays a crucial role behind the scenes of some of the world's largest tech player, including Apple, and Linux. With over a decade of experience, its won a reputation as a go-to in the software supply chain space.

A major turning point for the company came in 2019, when private equity giant Visa Equity PArtners acquired it, signaling some serious momentum. Fast forward to 2022, and Sonatype hit a big milestone: $100M in annual recurring revenue and a growing global workforce. It also revealed it will be going public, riding the wave of explosive interest in cybersecurity and software supply chain tools.

The market for these tools is cleary heating up but Sonatype isn't just another name in the crowd, it's got longevity, credibility, and a good eye for spotting what's next. In a space that's growing fast and always changing, Sonatype's deep roots and ongoing growth certainly give it a solid edge.
