Gather
Gather is a virtual workspace where remote teams can see each other, walk up for spontaneous conversations, and collaborate without scheduling a meeting for everything. Often described as 'Minecraft meets Zoom,' it pairs a customizable 2-D world with spatial audio and video, plus AI meeting notes and async chat. Founded in 2020 and backed by Sequoia and Index, Gather has been used by millions of people for work, conferences, weddings and gatherings.
Sameer Shariff
Sameer Shariff is the co-founder and CEO of Cambly, a San Francisco-based edtech platform that connects English learners worldwide with native-speaking tutors via on-demand video chat. A Princeton and Stanford-educated engineer who spent five years at Google, Shariff co-founded Cambly in 2012 after a trip to Argentina revealed how dramatically conversation practice accelerates language fluency. After a failed Series A attempt, he drove Cambly to cash-flow positivity without touching raised capital - then raised $60M from Benchmark, Bessemer, and others once the company no longer needed it. Cambly has ranked #1 in app stores across 150 countries and reaches an addressable market of 1.5 billion people seeking English fluency.
