Forbes reports that Awotona is the founder and CEO of Calendly, a company specialising in scheduling software, that helped him become a billionaire.
He started the company to address the challenges he faced with time-consuming email exchanges required for meeting schedules, having previously worked as a salesman for tech firms like EMC (now Dell EMC).
For years, Awotona is said to have self-funded Calendly before successfully securing a significant $350 million investment in 2021, propelling the company’s valuation to $3 billion.
