ABOUT THIS EVENT

Please join us for brunch to hear the story of Dropbox from Co-founder Arash Ferdowsi and what it took to take the business from Garage to IPO. Dropbox has become a world renowned cloud storage platform since being founded in 2007, and within two years quickly gained traction and achieved impressive profitability. Arash will discuss the humble beginnings that started as an idea for storing and sharing files via the internet amongst his friends at MIT, and what propelled Dropbox to become one of the most successful tech companies of all time.
