Akash Nigam Biography

Akash Nigam's parents gave him an ultimatum: Raise $3 million or stay in school. He chose to drop out and raised the money instead. His first venture alongside cofounder Evan Rosenbaum and a third cofounder was Blend a group messaging app. It didn't gain traction but Nigam says he ignored an acquisition offer instead to focus on Genies - their version of a Bitmoji killer. An early beta picked up a million users and another two million on the waitlist. In November Genies will publicly release its new app with Gucci as its first advertiser providing in-app clothing for the avatars. The app launch coincides with new funding. Genies has raised a total of $25 million from investors including NEA Foundation Capital Russell Westbrook and Cameron Dallas.
