We invited the co-founder of Shazam, Dhiraj Mukherjee to share the Shazam story from its humble beginnings to the IPO and beyond. But most importantly will talk about how Dhiraj ended up getting involved with Carl Thomas and MiPic, a custom print platform and app for artists, photographers and designers to turn their Likes into Cash. It's a great story.
