Chris Eigeland, 2016 Anthill 30under30 Winner
With the goal of making online learning globally accessible, Chris Eigeland created GO1 — the “TripAdvisor” for online education.
In the early stages of development, Eigeland and his co-founder Andrew Barnes failed to raise their first round of venture capital funding for their original business idea, a CRM solution. When they went back to the drawing board a lightbulb went off. Education — this was the field in which their technology could make a true lasting impact.
