Australian-born Johnny Boufarhat founded online events software Hopin in 2019, when an auto-immune disease meant he was stuck in his girlfriend’s King’s Cross flat.

By March 2021, the business raised $400 million at a $5.65 billion valuation, with funders including Salesforce Ventures and VC fund Andreessen Horowitz.
Post-pandemic life has been tougher for the live events company, though, which underwent three rounds of layoffs in 2022.
