Emmanuel Straschnov is the founder of Bubble, a leading company in the no-code movement.
Founded in 2012, Bubble was launched before the term “no-code” had even been coined, with the ambition to help anyone build web applications without any knowledge of code. It has since helped many entrepreneurs launch their companies without a technical co-founder.
The company recently announced a $100 million Series A round and, in this episode, we discover that it’s only the beginning for them. We dive into the early days of Bubble with Emmanuel, how he bootstrapped for 7 years, his vision for Bubble, and a lot more.
