Akash Nigam
Akash Nigam Biography
Akash Nigam's parents gave him an ultimatum: Raise $3 million or stay in school. He chose to drop out and raised the money instead. His first venture, alongside cofounder Evan Rosenbaum and a third cofounder, was Blend, a group messaging app. It didn't gain traction, but Nigam says he ignored an acquisition offer instead to focus on Genies - their version of a Bitmoji killer. An early beta picked up a million users and another two million on the waitlist.
In November, Genies will publicly release its new app with Gucci as its first advertiser, providing in-app clothing for the avatars. The app launch coincides with new funding. Genies has raised a total of $25 million from investors including NEA, Foundation Capital, Russell Westbrook, and Cameron Dallas.
