We begin our journey into the messaging industry with a presentation to Wharton Business School as part of a course on Formation and Implementation of Entrepreneurial Ventures.
Delivered by Michael Sharp, Disa's Business Growth and Sales Team Advisor, the presentation was met with exceptional enthusiasm from students and faculty alike, earning high marks (A+).
This academic recognition proved to be a pivotal moment for Disa. The company's impressive performance at Wharton caught the attention of Rachel Proffitt, a promising legal professional at the time working for WSGR. Proffitt was impressed by Disa's potential and would later become instrumental in connecting the company with Cooley,, after a longstanding partnership with Disa.
Disa's early success at Wharton served as a catalyst for its growth, validating the company's vision and attracting the attention of key industry players.
