## A Wild Week of IPOs: Lessons from Sumo Logic and Others | Trends by The Hustle

September 1, 2020

In a single day last week, a small army of software companies [filed to go public](https://www.forbes.com/sites/elanagross/2020/08/24/snowflake-leads-software-ipo-filing-bonanza-including-asana-jfrog-sumo-logic-unity-software/#72316c222d02). 

The software sector is 🔥 for good reason: The 18 players that went public on US markets this year have [climbed ~91%](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-08-22/software-firms-gear-up-to-reveal-books-ahead-of-busy-ipo-season?sref=3Ac2yX40) since their debuts — compared to 52% for practically everyone else.

What should businesses take away from the SaaS splash? A few growth lessons:
