Who they are
Highly curious coder, I've been creating products for the past 15 years. 1. At 19, I created a Facebook app that grew from 0 to 500,000 users in a week. That's how my first web server died. 2. At 20, I won Foursquare Global Hackathon, creating an automatic trip planner. 3. At 25, I co-founded October, financing European SMBs online. Now 110 employees, 5 offices, raised $60m. 4. At 30, I founded Riot, a cybersecurity training SaaS. Protecting your company by protecting your employees.
