LogMeIn CEO Letter to GoTo Employees
From: Bill Wagner, LogMeIn CEO
To: Global GoTo Employees
Subject: An Exciting New Chapter
Hi everyone,
As you’ve heard by now, our two companies are planning on coming together to become one of the world’s top 10 SaaS companies – a market leader with over $1 billion in revenue, nearly 3,000 employees, more than 2 million customers, in virtually every country across the globe. The journey we’re about to embark upon is incredibly exciting. I’ve had the privilege of getting to know some of the GetGo team over the past few weeks, and I’m looking forward to meeting many more of you in the not too distant future.
As you’ve read, we don’t expect the merger to close until in the first quarter of 2017, as it is subject to a variety approvals and other customary closing conditions, and until then, we’re independent companies. That said, I wanted to take a minute to provide some personal perspective – why I’m so excited by this rare opportunity to bring together these two great companies.
I believe that when you combine GoTo’s enormous customer base, market-leading products, and household name brand recognition with LogMeIn’s focus on user experience, disruptive freemium business models, and proven track record running a growing, publicly-traded business, you have a recipe for industry disruption. I am confident that together, we will have the strengths required to:
| 1. | Combine the world’s best user experience with a seamless communications platform to transform the way people collaborate |
| 2. | Enable simple and secure access for people and businesses as they evolve to an app and cloud-centric world |
| 3. | Empower companies to reimagine customer engagement and support across all digital channels, devices, and media |
While the strategic opportunity in front of us is profound, anyone who has built and grown technology companies knows that the key to success isn’t only the technology – it is the people. As we began our
conversations about a potential merger, we quickly realized that both companies share similar cultures and values, something that gave both Chris and I added confidence about this deal.
I recognize that mergers of this scale come with significant challenges and inherent uncertainty for employees of each company. Both leadership teams are committed to being as transparent and thoughtful as possible throughout the integration planning and transition process.
We’ve embarked on an amazing new chapter in both of our company’s histories, and I’m looking forward to sharing this journey together.
Bill
PS—I know we had some technical difficulties with the announcement call earlier this week, and many of you were unable to listen in. If you missed it, you can now listen to the recorded webcast.
