Between Two Founders #2: Vanta CEO Christina Cacioppo
Vanta founder and CEO Christina Cacioppo sits down with Jeff Seibert, Co-Founder and CEO of Digits, to share behind-the-scenes challenges, pivotal moments, and valuable lessons learned towards building a category defining company.
Christina Cacioppo, CEO and Co-founder of Vanta, created a new category in cybersecurity and compliance automation, signed her first 600 customers without a proper website and waited until Vanta reached $10 million in ARR before raising a Series A. Vanta is now valued at $2.45 billion after its latest $150 million Series C raise.
An entrepreneur at heart, Christina’s journey began at age 11 with a Beanie Baby business on eBay. After earning an undergraduate and master's degrees from Stanford University, Christina worked as an analyst at Union Square Ventures, focusing on early-stage investments.
At Dropbox, Christina managed the Dropbox Paper team, where she faced strict security compliance challenges—igniting the idea for Vanta.
Join Jeff and Christina as they delve into the intricacies of building a high-impact startup and scaling a business in the face of intense competition. They will cover topics including getting your first hundred customers, challenges of fundraising, ensuring compliance from day one and is it worth buying billboards around San Francisco.
Plus, gain exclusive access to an intimate gathering of handpicked founders and VCs.
