“It’s clear that the investor community has a strong focus on growth combined with profitability and they like our plan,” said Christian Lanng, CEO of Tradeshift. “As a network business, growth is always going to be a key part of our story. But it’s also important that we manage that growth responsibly.”
Tradeshift’s drive towards profitability will also include a rigorous focus on cost control measures and restructuring global cost to take better advantage of Tradeshift’s global shared services and partners. An important part of this process will be to ensure that sufficient resources are allocated to high performing areas of the business.
“As we reach the next phase in the maturity of our business, our focus for the coming year will be about doubling down in areas where we’re seeing the greatest momentum while continuing to ensure we have the necessary balance in place to fully capitalize on the enormous opportunities in front of us.”
