At Thoma Bravo, we believe this next phase in the #AI revolution will produce incredible innovation and be transformative for enterprise software. Earlier this year, we held an AI Summit in Miami that brought together our firm’s senior leaders, portfolio company executives, academics and other industry experts to discuss the immense opportunity #GenAI presents and how to manage risk through good governance. While GenAI has received more mainstream awareness and scrutiny in recent months, enterprise software has been deploying AI for years, including by companies within Thoma Bravo’s portfolio. Given this incumbency, we believe our portfolio companies have a unique advantage in unlocking the value of this dynamic technology, as they own high-quality and proprietary data sets and have significant experience in responsibly managing data privacy and other AI governance issues. Hear insights from our leaders, including Orlando Bravo, Seth Boro, Holden Spaht and more, to learn about our take on AI and the potential opportunity it holds for our portfolio, the software sector and the economy more broadly.

We're proud to highlight our partnership with SEO (Sponsors for Educational Opportunity) to launch the first-ever tech internship program to provide diverse college students with access to paid internships. "While tech is one of the most innovative and dynamic industries, we recognize that it remains one of the least diverse," shared our Managing Director and SEO San Francisco Advisory Board member Jennifer James. With this in mind, we reached out to SEO four years ago to build an internship program that focuses on recruiting high-achieving diverse college students into the tech industry. Since launching the program, we have partnered with SEO to provide Thoma Bravo portfolio companies with access to a pool of talented candidates who are working toward their college degrees. This summer, we’re excited to have facilitated the placement of 18 college students from the #SEOCareer program across several of our portfolio companies (ABC Fitness, Flexera, Instructure, Qlik, Quorum Software and Sophos), at Thoma Bravo and our partner SEO firm FGS Global.
