We learned several things about today’s Friday Nooner guest, Akash Ganapathi, the Co-Founder and CEO of Durham-based Opine.

• He met his wife when they were both students at the North Carolina School of Science & Mathematics.
• He met his two Opine co-founders—Charlie Duong and Austin Kelleher—when they were all early employees at Morrisville-based unicorn JupiterOne.
• He and the other Opine-rs are the reason there are bottles of Solyent in the downstairs fridge at GrepBeat/Colopy Ventures/Primordial World HQ, which they work out of once or twice a week.
