His startup was used by over 7,000 Stanford students. During this time, CourseRank underwent an acquisition. Working in a rapidly growing startup, Filip decided to create his own startup, Verkada. Currently, Verkada is valued at $3.5 billion and has evolved into a comprehensive security company. In the video, he shares his experiences and lessons learned while building the company.
