Jan 31, 2023 · Season 7 · Episode 21 · 26 min
The smarter no-code platform
Nanxi Liu is from Colorado, and went to school at UC Berkeley. In college, she immediately started her entrepreneurial journey by starting a bio tech company, and then eventually starting tech companies. She built and sold a company called Enplug, which was the #1 open digital signage software company. Outside of tech, she has kept a full life as well - producing TV shows - them winning an Emmy, snowboarding, and playing piano & cello.
At her prior company, Nanxi experienced her non-technical team members consistently needing some sort of tool to solve a problem, and as such, waiting around for engineering resources to be freed up to build it. When their company got acquired, she and her co-founders knew exactly what they wanted to build.
This is the creation story of Blaze.
