BREAKING: The Future According to Sequoia $10 Trillion Companies Are Coming.. Alfred Lin, Partner & new Co-Steward of Sequoia (#1 investor on the Midas List) “When I joined Sequoia the largest market cap company was probably $300B or $400B dollars. Today we have companies that are worth $4-5T.” “If you give it another 5-10 years… those companies continue to compound, it’ll be worth $10 trillion or more.” For more than 5 decades, Sequoia Capital has backed many of the most consequential companies in technology, from Apple, Nvidia, Airbnb, DoorDash, Stripe, & more. But as Alfred Lin explains in this conversation, Sequoia does not think about the 54-year-old firm the way many others do. Rather than optimizing around AUM, Sequoia focuses on DPI & being a net liquidity provider to LPs. Since 2020, the firm has distributed more than $43 billion back to investors (as of Oct 27, 2025). In this conversation, Alfred breaks down: - Why AI is accelerating startup growth and product velocity - Why “AI kills SaaS” is the wrong framework - How moats change during paradigm shifts - What Alfred is hearing in boardrooms right now - Which companies are most vulnerable in the AI era - Founder-market fit & the importance of “spikes” - Why the next generation of companies could be much bigger than today’s giants - How Sequoia identifies outlier founders across companies like Airbnb, DoorDash, Kalshi, Zipline, Clay, Commure, Nominal, Physical Intelligence, Crosby, OpenAI, and Citadel Securities.
