Roblox: Not Just for Kids Avoiding Online School
Tai Rattigan – COO & Co-Founder, Partnership Leaders26 Feb, 2021
| Roblox announced this week their intention to IPO on 03/10/21 (which is Tai’s birthday, and he’s accepting stock as gifts). If you haven’t heard of them, it’s where everyone’s kids are now that they’re not in school. |

You might be surprised to hear that Roblox developers, people who build playable games on the Roblox platform, earned $250MM in 2020, which was up from $110MM the year before. Which, in retrospect, really makes us question the career path we made. Congrats to the team building that ecosystem, it’s a testament to how all businesses should be thinking! |
