- Previous Startup Summit Speakers
Simon Beckerman
Founder, Depop
Simon’s lightbulb moment occurred when he had a coffee table full of items he’d been meaning to sell. “That’s when it hit me like a ton of bricks. I knew we needed to add a selling feature to Depop. The idea just fell into my lap: Twitter’s feature is what people are thinking, Instagram is what people are doing, and Depop is what people are selling.”
After a successful soft launch in Italy in 2012, Simon moved to London, where he is currently based along with Depop HQ. Simon has raised around $40M to date and the company has now 100+ employees and offices in London, New York, Los Angeles and Sydney. Today, Depop has over 20 million users in 147 countries.
