Daniel Yousefian
Daniel Yousefian is a co-founder of Clubhouse, the voice-based social networking platform that captured the world's attention during the pandemic. Built under Alpha Exploration Co. and backed by $112M from Andreessen Horowitz, Clubhouse pioneered drop-in audio rooms before boldly pivoting toward intimate friend-to-friend voice messaging - complete with AI-powered custom voice cloning. Based in Yerevan, Armenia, Yousefian is part of the founding trio alongside CEO Paul Davison and co-founder Rohan Seth.
Paul Davison
Paul Davison is the co-founder and CEO of Clubhouse, the live audio social platform that hit a $4 billion valuation within a year of launch during the COVID-19 pandemic. A Stanford-trained industrial engineer turned serial entrepreneur, Davison previously co-founded Highlight (acquired by Pinterest in 2016) and served briefly as CEO of CoinList. His career has centered on one obsession: giving people better ways to find each other and talk. Clubhouse - which he built with co-founder Rohan Seth - brought the intimacy of voice to the scale of a social network, attracting tens of millions of users and sparking a live-audio wave across the industry.
