This is our Wednesday show, where we’ll be locating the duo, thinking about their work and opening up the rest.This week, Natasha Mascarenhas was interviewed Sam ChowdhuryCEO and co-founder of ClassDojo, and Chris Farmer, CEO of SignalFire, a venture capital firm that recently announced a $900 million fund to back tech startups.The structure of this interview is a bit different as it is actually recorded as TechCrunch Live Sessions, our weekly program, focuses on helping people start better risk-backed businesses.
