What's in Episode 65?

Here is something interesting; a new commerce platform called Popup. We chat to Co-founder Matteo Grassi who has had quite the journey! Bringing all his experience from being a Shopify Merchant Success Manager, to spending time in an Indian Ashram and then touring as a musician around Europe. He has co-founded numerous DTC brands under the umbrella of Viceroy Group. With his wealth of experience and business partners, Popup was born from the ambitious bunch. We find out more about the only no-code ecommerce platform that enables merchants to visually build and control customer journeys while managing multiple online Popup Stores from one admin in numerous languages and currencies.

Matteo is also involved with a charity helping those in Ukraine called Commerce4good.  He chats more about how he is using his supply chain and commerce to help Ukraine.
