Welcome to our Founders in Focus series, where each month we highlight one of the founders of Okta Ventures’ portfolio companies. You’ll learn more about them and how they work with Okta. This month we’re speaking with Bob Moore, founder of Crossbeam. What is Crossbeam and what is your mission? Crossbeam is a partner ecosystem platform. We act as a data escrow service that finds overlapping customers and prospects with your partners while keeping the rest of your data private and secure. Our mission is to create a more connected business world by powering the exchange of data between companies. What were you doing prior to Crossbeam that led you to this moment? My co-founder Buck Ryan and I believe that we’re in the “Era of the Ecosystem.” It’s the idea that a product’s position in its partner ecosystem is just as important, if not.
