There aren’t many founders who can say they’ve steered the same company from scrappy startup to publicly traded platform while keeping their edge — but co-founder and CEO Aaron Levie isn’t most founders. AtTechCrunch Disrupt 2025, happening October 27–29 at Moscone West in San Francisco, Levie joins us live on theDisrupt Stageto share how he’s kept Box innovating and relevant through two decades of tech cycles.
He’ll unpack what reinvention really looks like inside a public company, what AI is changing (and not changing) in enterprise software, and why staying sharp means questioning everything — even your own best ideas.
Boxlaunched before “the cloud” was a buzzword and outlasted a wave of competitors that couldn’t scale or adapt. Levie’s perspective — as both a visionary founder and a long-term public company CEO — is a rare combination. He’ll reflect on the hardest pivots, biggest surprises, and the mindset it takes to keep evolving when the tech landscape moves at warp speed.
Aaron Leviehelped define cloud collaboration before it was a trend, and he’s still setting the bar. This fireside chat will go deep on what it takes to build something that lasts — not just in terms of product, but also culture, strategy, and mindset. Whether you’re navigating early growth or managing scale, this is one session you’ll want to take notes on.
