Episode 230: Ankith Harathi - Co-Founder & CEO, Macro

It’s a Zoom world that we are living in these days as it relates to meetings. Yes, Zoom became a verb and the company experienced insane levels of growth from the pandemic… but let’s face it, the future of work has also changed with most companies embracing remote work and the world of online meetings are here to stay. So, if this is the way of the world, shouldn’t your online meeting experience and profile look a lot more personalized and meaningful? Ankith thinks so and the company just launched their new Zoom client for creatives where you can remove the barriers to true self expression and bring the full you. Macro raised over $4M last year with tier-A investors.
