Making design accessible to the world - with Cameron Adams(Co-founder & CPO at Canva)

My guest today is Cameron Adams. Cameron is the co-founder and Chief Product Officer at Canva, the graphic design tool website that recently was valued at over $1 billion. In today's interview, we talk to Cameron about his long and checkered career. We talk about his work on Google Wave, which seemed to be a product way ahead of its time - and which gathered some incredible buzz but saw limited adoption. In his next startup Fluent, he seemed to have everything going for him with a huge surge of user interest - in spite of which he had to shut it down. Cameron was third time lucky with Canva, which has a steady start and growth before it really took off in the last couple of years. In today's conversation we talk about Canva's gradual rise and the forces behind it. We go into some of the key product decisions they've made in their pursuit of the mission of making design accessible to everyone.
