In his previous life, Roy Rubin co-founded and held the reins as CEO of Magento, a globally successful open source ecommerce platform that skyrocketed and soared across the world from its inception to its ultimate acquisition by the tech giant, Adobe. In his recent conversation with Karthik Chidambaram, Founder and CEO of DCKAP, we learn all about Roy’s amazing journey, his standout vision and strategy for ultimate success, and what he’s doing now.

There are a lot of lessons to be learned, from feeling things out during their starting steps, to the largely organic growth that surrounded the product, to the rapidly changing environment of ecommerce throughout the entire journey of building Magento, and what he did to help forge the path ahead. While his hard work and leadership was no doubt vital to catapulting the success of the brand and bolstering the creation of the world-renowned platform it has become today, Roy humbly refers to the robust community and the ultimate power of organic growth as its number one driving force.

Today, as the founding partner of R-Squared Ventures, Roy utilizes all the passion and knowledge that he’s gained working in the industry to offer advice and invest in various up-and-coming companies. He continues to inspire with his ongoing mission to take risks and support strong and creative teams in a wide variety of fields that are ready to rise up and disrupt the industry.
