IT industry at inflection point, says Zoho's Vembu

|April 19, 2025

In a post on X, Vembu contended that inefficiencies in products and services have long plagued the global software industry. "My operating thesis: what we are seeing is not just a cyclical downturn and it is not just AI related. Even without the uncertainty induced by tariffs, there was trouble ahead."
