Overview

When a fast-growing tech company suddenly spends billions on deals, what is really going on behind the scenes? Buying the Future takes you inside billion-dollar tech deals at ServiceNow and shows how one year of bold moves could reshape its fate. This is not a dry manual. It is a clear, story-driven ServiceNow book that walks you through the choices, the pressure, and the risks behind a high-stakes ServiceNow strategy. You will see how the ServiceNow platform grew from a tool for its service management into one of the most important enterprise saas platforms, and why its leaders decided that steady growth was no longer enough. The book explains how software mergers and acquisitions, as well as SaaS mergers and acquisitions, have become the new weapons in a crowded market, and why these choices matter for customers, workers, and investors. At the centre of the story is Bill McDermott and the kind of bold, top-down style often linked with Bill McDermott's leadership. Through a clear tech m&a case study, you will see how deals around AI in enterprise software, enterprise AI strategy, and saas growth strategy aim to push ServiceNow into new areas like ServiceNow workflow automation, deep security, and smart support. The book looks closely at cybersecurity acquisitions such as Armis Security, fast-moving AI deals, like Moveworks AI, and growing needs around identity security. It shows how all of this ties into bigger questions of corporate growth strategy and long-term value creation. If you care about cloud software investing or technology stock investing, this book gives you a grounded view of risk and reward instead of hype. It reads as a clear business case study that technology companies can learn from, whether you are a founder, a manager, or a student trying to understand modern enterprise software strategy. Buying the Future gives you the tools to judge for yourself whether ServiceNow's spree was a smart bet or a warning sign. By the last page, you will see how one company's choices in the ServiceNow story echo across markets, careers, and balance sheets-and why these decisions are worth your attention long after the headlines about billion-dollar tech deals fade.
