Tech: Informatica, Informally

The Motley Fool
About this episode

We take a listener suggestion and look at Informatica, a company that makes it easy for businesses to use AI to integrate, manage, and parse data so that customers can do something useful with it.

The name might be familiar to long-time tech investors -- it was public for over 15 years before being taken private. We explain the company's history, transition to the subscription model, and leadership changes as it prepares for a second act on the market.
