Figma set to debut as blockbuster US IPO lifts revival hopes
By Manya Saini and Niket Nishant (Reuters) -Design software firm Figma will begin trading later on Thursday after raising $1.22 billion in a blowout U.S. float, setting the stage for a flurry of high-growth tech listings and strengthening a rebound in the IPO market. The company, which priced the deal at $33, above an already raised range, secured a valuation of $19.34 billion, just shy of the $20 billion it was set to fetch in a scrapped buyout deal with industry giant Adobe in December 2023. The U.S. initial public offerings market has bounced back after tariff-driven volatility briefly paused listings in April, putting 2025 on track to end a nearly three-year dry spell. "Fast-growing software IPOs have been extremely rare during the past three years, so deals like this tend to get a lot of attention," said Matt Kennedy, senior strategist at Renaissance Capital, a provider of IPO-focused research and ETFs. "Because of this three-year bottleneck, tech IPO investors have been starved for new deals." Recent tech IPOs have drawn strong investor interest and delivered solid post-listing gains, fueling optimism around new offerings from high-growth and AI-focused firms. The San Francisco, California-based startup and some of its existing investors sold 36.9 million shares in the offering. Figma makes collaborative design software used to build websites, apps and digital products, and customers include streaming giant Netflix, travel firm Airbnb and language learning app Duolingo. "From a private markets perspective, Figma's IPO is a bellwether event for the tech sector," said Derek Hernandez, senior analyst, emerging technology at PitchBook. AI RACE Design software firms are racing to integrate generative-AI tools that automate tasks like image creation, layout suggestions and code generation, as companies jostling to win enterprise clients and creative teams. Figma, in its IPO filing, flagged intense competition, particularly from rapid AI adoption, as a potential headwind, warning it could cede market share. "We're already investing heavily in AI and we plan to double down even more in this area. AI spend will potentially be a drag on our efficiency for several years," Figma CEO Dylan Field in the IPO prospectus. "AI is also core to how design workflows will evolve going forward." The push has accelerated since Adobe, Microsoft and others began rolling out AI features aimed at speeding up workflows and cutting costs. "Software companies with a strong AI element to them seem to be assets that investors want to buy," said Will Braeutigam, U.S. capital markets transactions leader at Deloitte. Figma, for its part, has rolled out several products built around AI as it looks to stay competitive and meet growing demand for automation in design workflows. "If this company didn't have an AI strategy, it would not be seeing this level of demand," Renaissance Capital's Kennedy said. Figma's prominent backers include Silicon Valley venture capital giants Kleiner Perkins and Sequoia. Its revenue surged 46% year-over-year to $228.2 million in the three months ended March 31. For the full-year 2024, its revenue jumped 48% to $749.01 million. It posted a per share loss of $3.74 versus a profit of $1.62 in 2023. It is common for high-growth startups to be unprofitable at the time of listing, but investors have turned more selective, placing greater focus on those with clear paths to profitability and sustainable growth. Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, Allen & Co and J.P. Morgan are the lead underwriters of the IPO.

You can't cut your way to success: Why some leaders are getting the AI race wrong
The World Economic Forum reports that 41% of employers plan workforce reductions by 2030 due to AI. Amazon's CEO just told employees that AI will mean 'fewer people doing some jobs,' while Microsoft is cutting 6,000 workers after pushing AI adoption. They're about to make the biggest strategic mistake of the decade. The real choice leaders face today isn't which AI model to buy—it's how to use it: as a layoff machine, or as a competitive advantage to eat their rivals' lunch. We've seen this before. At my last job at Cloudability, I witnessed a fascinating SaaS dynamic: businesses that innovate take cost savings and reinvest them back into efficiency, reach, and market share. Our cloud cost management product rarely saved businesses money on their bills. But it did give them insights to optimize spend and allowed them to reinvest savings into bigger bets and innovation. The companies that did so went on to become innovators and leaders; the ones that didn't became footnotes in someone else's growth story. Replacement vs. Redeployment The same pattern is emerging with AI agents, except this time the savings aren't budget dollars—they're human time, capability, and potential. According to new research from Salesforce, AI agent adoption is expected to increase 327% over the next two years, leading to productivity gains of 30%. The shift isn't toward replacement—it's toward redeployment. When AI handles repetitive tasks like rerouting customer support tickets, summarizing meeting notes, or filling out compliance reports, it doesn't replace jobs, it frees up capacity. CHROs expect to redeploy 23% of their workforce to new roles and 89% believe AI will empower them to reassign employees to new, more relevant positions. While those findings offer promise and reassurance for the workforce, not every leader will see it that way. Based on my experience using AI as a force multiplier for my team, I believe the companies that thrive will be the ones that figure out how to integrate humans and digital teammates in ways that maximize both efficiency and the irreplaceable qualities machines can't replicate—like creativity, empathy, and judgment. The AI Divide This sets up a fundamental choice: cut or invest. But beneath that lies a deeper philosophical question: Do you see people as a cost to manage or a force to grow your business? In the case of a contact center, a leader with a cost-cutting mindset might say 'Let's replace our support team with chatbots to save money.' That decision might frustrate customers and drive up escalations, leading to short-term savings at the expense of long-term growth. The reinvestment approach sounds more like: 'Let's use AI for case classification and routing so customers get the right expert with all context preloaded.' The result is faster resolution times, happier customers, support agents focused on higher-value work—and more sustainable business growth. The productivity gains are real—what sets winning leaders apart is asking, 'How do we reinvest this efficiency and grow?' 'Where can we shift human focus from tasks to transformation?' and 'How do we redesign work to create more value, not just more output?' Review, Reallocate, and Reimagine For those leaders ready to grow and build something better, I recommend the three Rs. Review: Audit employee time usage, identify underused tools, and diagnose process bottlenecks. Determine which tasks are repetitive or low-value and which ones can be automated with AI agents. Reallocate: Reclaim hours unlocked by AI and reinvest them in work that accelerates revenue, deepens customer value, or fuels innovation. Reimagine: Shift time toward high-impact interactions, retrain agents for sales roles, or embed support teams into product development to help eliminate root-cause customer issues. AI will amplify an existing leadership philosophy. If a leader is already shortsighted about people and customers, AI will make that worse. If leaders invest in their teams and customer experience, AI will become a force multiplier for both. This difference in approach explains why identical AI implementations can produce vastly different business outcomes. The technology is the same, but the leadership philosophy determines whether AI becomes a race to the bottom or a rocket to the top.
