Company Description
Social media has failed us. We were promised a place to bond online, to expand our horizons and connect with our fellow humankind. Instead, we got antagonistic echo chambers with mediums for communication that only further an outrage culture and business models that incentivize spreading disinformation.
At Fireside we are building a platform with a goal of promoting civil intelligent discourse, shared connected experiences, and genuine relationship building virtually. We’re doing this through building a first-of-its-kind interactive broadcasting platform to promote driving social impact through meaningful conversations at scale.
We’ve raised a multi-million dollar seed round from top tier consumer investors and the co-founding team is made up of experienced serial entrepreneurs including Mark Cuban. You’ll be joining a small team on the ground floor and will have a huge impact on the platform and community we’re building.
