Altaf Ganihar — CEO
Founder of Snaptrude: A modern, collaborative design tool for the AEC industry (Think Figma/Google Docs for building design). Our vision is to help accelerate the creation of a better, more efficient, and sustainable built environment. Snaptrude is an emerging player in the race to modernize 3D building design tools for the AEC industry in a cloud-first world. I have been building Snaptrude for over 7 years and, during this journey, have built a global team of around 80 people and raised over $22 million in venture funding from firms like Accel and Foundamental. I started as a researcher in geometry and computer graphics, worked on the digitization of cultural heritage sites (UNESCO site of Hampi), and have multiple publications and patents in this domain. I have a huge love for math and physics when I’m not working and deeply follow research in computer vision, graphics, and machine learning.
