Follow on Google News | SaaS Company Acquires Space in New OrleansRapid-growth technology company, Align, graduates from world-class and community-driven coworking space, Launch Pad, and moves into 3,900 square foot office.
By: Launch Pad Align started at Launch Pad in January 2018 with $2.175m in funding and just three employees; they grew to fifteen employees by the time they graduated from Launch Pad in October 2018. With over 1,000 companies and executive coaches using their software, Align is on track to hire ten more employees within the next twelve months. Align's decision to start at Launch Pad proved fruitful when they were able to find their lead developer, who was already a Launch Pad member, working in the room next to them. Align's CEO, Doug Walner, says Launch Pad is "a great connecting point for resources," and recommends startups begin at Launch Pad because "[Launch Pad] provided flexibility in growth and allowed for cost containment. Launch Pad allowed our team to focus on our business while Launch Pad focused on office operations." Founder and CEO of Launch Pad, Chris Schultz, shares, "We're proud of Align's success and growth - They literally outgrew Launch Pad! I like that they took advantage of the space and basically used it as a talent pool - that's what Launch Pad is here for - to support, connect, and keep the flywheel spinning. As with all of the companies that graduate from Launch Pad, Align's departure is bittersweet. I love that they're reaching their milestones, but we certainly miss their vibrant employees at our New Orleans location. We're fortunate to have a strong relationship with Doug and Align, and I'm looking forward to future collaborations."
