Snowflake is a cloud-native data warehouse and data platform founded by Benoit Dageville, Thierry Cruanes, and Marcin Zukowski in 2012, headquartered in Bozeman, Montana, and publicly traded (NYSE: SNOW) since its record-breaking 2020 IPO — the largest software IPO in history at the time, raising $3.4 billion.
