About this listen
Beerud Sheth in a rare founder who’s started not one, but two unicorns — UpWork and Gupshup. He’s seen a lot of pivotal moments in SV history — having started Upwork in 1998 before the dot com bubble, and Gupshup in 2005, three years before the GFC.
Today, Upwork is a publicly traded company valued at $1.5B and Gupshup is a unicorn, last valued at $1.4B+ as of April 2021.
In this conversation, we talk with Beerud about his experiences building UpWork and Gupshup across almost 25 years.
