- Entrepreneurship
In today's episode of Category Visionaries, we speak with Chetan Venkatesh, CEO of Macrometa, a developer tool which has raised $38 Million in funding, about why the next generation of global connectivity is going to be so much more than just a ‘better cloud,’ and how Macrometa’s disaggregated network is able to process data faster, better, and more securely. Through the Global Data Network platform, their solution can return data based services in a fraction of a second, giving clients a critical advantage over the competition.
We also speak about Macrometa’s organic development of a category-creating solution, the current weaknesses in our global cloud development system they hope to address, why more data brings more potential but also more exposure to potential risk, and why Chetan still believes that for a tech startup, nothing still beats the Bay Area.
Topics Discussed:
Macrometa’s astonishing speed, delivering data-based services in the blink of an eye
Current weaknesses and limitations of the existing ‘cloud based’ global network
Why the pressure on data infrastructure is only set to increase as every more people go online to work, shop and socialize
Why whatever the haters say, Chetan still sees more potential in the Bay Area than any other startup space
How Macrometa organically developed their category-creating solution, and why Chetan believes most life-disrupting innovations are completely unexpected
Why Chetan is excited for Macrometa’s growth in the years to come, and hopes demand for their solution stays high
