Tech Corp Dev from Another Industry
So I know this is probably not super easy, but how possible is it if I say, have a background in Corp Dev + IB in another industry (let's say consumer, industrials, utilities, business svcs), to transition into CD for a tech / enterprise software kind of company? Understanding that obviously, valuations/companies work quite differently in tech and learning industries takes time...
I'm not too well versed in the software industry but I love the idea of acquiring/building software businesses, looking at M&A from the lens of evaluating new technologies, etc.. and feel like the culture at bay area tech co.'s fits my personality/interests better. Plus they really do seem to have the best pay/benefits and long-term I think being an expert in tech M&A is a more valuable skillset than anything else.
I've switched roles a few times and am afraid of getting asked "why didn't you get into tech before if you're so interested", frankly have no idea how to answer that. Any insights welcome.
Hi wanttobreakin111, any of these discussions helpful:

I hope those threads give you a bit more insight.
