#1541 How is Hack Reactor still standing when other coding schools are in the dead pool?

1 hour 18 minutes

Since the interview I did with Hack Reactor, they have been on a roll buying companies.

Well, today we’re going to meet one of the founders of a company they bought.

Harsh Patel is the founder of MakersSquare, a network of coding schools which is now part of Hack Reactor.

Something interesting happened in the world of coding schools that I want to talk about in this interview. The industry was quickly profitable and allowed a couple of companies to grow really big. But then people started losing money. Some of the businesses closed.

I want to find out how Hack Reactor fared through that period.
