Dropout. Three Pivots. Scaling Fast: The Metaforms Story
Join us for a conversation with Akshat Tyagi, Co-founder & CEO of Metaforms, and Manav Garg, Co-founder of Together Fund, as they talk about how Metaforms is reinventing market research with AI and what Akshat's early playbook looks like - as a founder who didn't have a manual.
Metaforms gives research agencies AI superpowers: automating survey programming, data processing, vendor coordination, voice research, and reporting. In just six months, it has onboarded four of the world’s top 20 agencies, processes 1,000+ surveys a month, and is reshaping a $130B global industry.
This conversation will unpack:
Taking unconventional bets—dropping out, pivoting, and navigating uncertainty
Moving early in AI and breaking into market research with an outsider lens
Winning trust—across investors, teammates, and customers
Building a category-defining giant in a niche, 'uncool' market
Who should attend?

Marketing professionals exploring AI’s role in speed, scale & efficiency
