A lot of attention has been paid to Dispo, the camera app startup co-founded by YouTuber David Dobrik, in recent weeks. In addition to raising a slew of cash, the company has received a slew of accolades. From being named a top startup in the Bay Area to a slew of awards at the elusive Founders Forum, Dispo has been on quite the tear. The latest round of funding bolsters that already impressive record. To name a few, Lime CEO Wayne Ting said he will not be investing in the future Spark round. As for who is on the hook?
Dispo was not without its fair share of controversy, most notably, a recent scuttlebutt claiming a Founders Forum attendee was actually fired after two years of employment. Dispo has a number of investors, and a number of those names have been in the news over the past two years. While most are still in the trenches, some are taking the time to put the pedal to the metal. Among these are David Dobrik and Stassie Karanikolaou. Apparently the pair has been working in tandem over the past week or so. So much so that it’s now hard to tell who’s the boss.
