Trust at Scale: How Security, AI and Grit Built a $100M Business

In this episode, David Savage talks to Stevie Case, Chief Revenue Officer at compliance and security leader Vanta. Stevie shares her remarkable journey from being one of the world’s first professional female gamers to leading Vanta’s explosive growth. Along the way, she opens up about the risks AI poses to data security, why regulation alone isn’t enough, and how trust has become a core business differentiator.

Stevie also gives insight into what it takes to build a high-performing, remote-first sales team—and why unconventional backgrounds can be a secret weapon in tech leadership.
