PechaKucha company profile

Take 400 seconds and listen to the PechaKucha story: pechakucha.com/presentations/pechakucha-company-overview. PechaKucha (Japanese for ‘chit chat’) has over 65,000 sign-ups for our new beta product, PK Create, that helps people become better storytellers (think Twitter meets Pinterest) and produce better virtual events (think Zoom with TED Talks, but democratized and more fun). Our growth is all organic and we’ve been able to build a brand known by content creators and event hosts all over the world (140+ countries). Sean Smyth, CEO, has 20+ years in tech, most recently an early employee at Groupon who served as a global GM/VP; John Brooks, CTO, former start-up CEO with 20+ years dev experience. We're based in Chicago with a small community management team in Tokyo. We’re raising a $3M Seed and looking to connect with investors interested in consumer/media/social.
