Hopin Sold for $15M After Raising $1B

We had some statewide meetings online for Michigan entrepreneurs at the start of COVID. Someone suggested that we use Hopin which I'd never heard of at the time. I fell in love with the platform and used it myself for some things I was doing at the time. It was a little rough around the edges but innovating fast. Actually preferred it to Zoom for some things.

I wouldn't have been surprised to learn of a sizeable decline in valuation, maybe news of a down round but didn't expect them to hold a fire sale.

I wonder whether any (non-executive) employees had the chance of participating in this secondary market.
