Description
CNBC has unveiled its 2021 Disruptor 50 list! Coming in at #33: Clubhouse, an audio-only social app that’s similar to podcasts, but less prescriptive with its live, unfiltered content. In just a year, the company has seen explosive growth and forced industry incumbents like Facebook, Twitter and Spotify to introduce similar audio products, or in some cases, make strategic acquisitions within the space. Paul Davison, Clubhouse co-founder and CEO, discusses the company’s success during the pandemic and plans for monetization. At #36: logistics company Gopuff, which promises delivery of essential items in 30 minutes or less. Rafael Ilishayev, Gopuff Co-CEO and co-founder, details the company’s vertical business model and its partnership with Uber. Plus, a conversation you’ll hear only on Squawk Pod with the list’s founder CNBC’s Julia Boorstin.
