Shares3 “A million dollars isn’t cool. You know what’s cool? A billion dollars.” If Justin Timberlake is to be believed, contract management software behemoth Ironclad just got very cool, indeed. Ironclad recently closed $100 million in Series D funding off a valuation just shy of $1 billion, making it the tech world’s latest unicorn. “Cool” isn’t part of the conversation Ironclad co-founder and CEO Jason Boehmig usually hears around his company. “We’ve been described in the press as boring, unsexy, all those words,” he told me during an interview last week. “But I think the people who really understand what we’re doing [see] there’s also kind of a revolutionary implication for what we’re doing.” Beyond that, Ironclad’s success also contains lessons that everyone in law — from law firm management to newly minted associates — can draw from.
