Zak co-founded Loopio with his close friends, Matt York and Jafar Owainati, in 2014, with one mission in mind: to build a great, enduring company. Since then, Loopio has grown to 200 employees, serving more than 1,000 customers globally. The company has been ranked several times as one of Canada’s fastest growing companies by Deloitte’s Technology Fast 50™ Awards, and it has a GlassDoor rating of 4.9/5. Loopio raised $9M in Series A funding from OpenView Venture Partners in 2018, and a $200M strategic investment from Sumeru Equity Partners in 2021, to accelerate its growth.
