S7 Bonus: Making the Operating System Multiplayer: From a $13M Collaboration Engine to OpenAI with Alex Embiricos of Remotion

Alex Embiricos comes from an interesting background, having grown up all over the place - between Asia, the Caribbean, and Switzerland. He came to the states for college, and found his way into software after a stint in Aerospace. Ultimately, he found himself interested in the intersection between business and building technology. During his career, he spent a lot of time working at Dropbox, followed up by starting a company with his friends. Outside of tech, he loves to play Badminton, and when asked what his favorite food was, well... it is his Mom's food.

After his prior startup failed, Alex still had the urge to build something. He met his now co-founder, and they started to explore ways to connect people online. What they noticed was that most video chat tools were created around a presentation, but not around solving problems together.

This is the creation story of Remotion.
