Interview with Emmanuel Straschnov, Founder of Bubble

''The company that will succeed at what we do is going to be as big as Amazon and Microsoft, in the sense that at some point it's going to become the new standard to build.''

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.
