BIG Labs (Bansal Innovation Group Labs) is a startup studio founded by Jyoti Bansal, the entrepreneur who founded and sold AppDynamics to Cisco for $3.7 billion in 2017. Launched in October 2017 and funded with $50 million of Bansal's personal capital, BIG Labs operates on the principle of parallel entrepreneurship, researching multiple large problem areas, prototyping and validating unique technology solutions, establishing product-market fit, and building new companies into high-growth startups. The studio focuses primarily on making life easier for the world's 20 million software professionals including developers, testers, operations engineers, security engineers, data scientists, product managers, and UX designers. BIG Labs takes a unique approach by developing products internally with co-founders rather than traditional incubation, with Bansal personally serving as CEO of companies spun out from the studio. The studio's criteria for launching companies include: compelling problems Bansal is personally passionate about, large market opportunities, viable paths to billion-dollar valuations, sustainable technology advantages, and strong co-founding teams.
