01 / WHAT IT BUILT

What the company did

Entrypoint was a New York startup founded in 2015 by Carissa Flocken and Ben Doyle. It built a 360-degree video player and uploader — described as a mix of Adobe and Squarespace for interactive video — that let creators add interactivity to 360 and VR content with drag-and-drop simplicity, no buffering, no apps and no headset required, with one-click sharing to social media. The eight-person company raised $2 million in seed funding led by Samsung NEXT and Two Sigma Ventures.
