The unique �viral� video used for Scrybe�s beta launch has almost 500,000 views on YouTube and upon its launch, created enough of a buzz for the likes of Adobe, NY-Times, Washington Post, CNET, Wired, and Gartner etc. to take note. Scrybe is funded by a major US technology giant, Adobe. Faizan also held senior product roles at Ultimus and Elixir Technologies.

Faizan Buzdar’s visionary startup Convo.com even had the United States President, Barack Obama, marveling at his work and commenting on why people like Buzdar were the reason why immigration reform in the US was necessary. His innovative startup that provides a collaborative workspace for global organizations has led to five million dollars in funding from venture capitalists in the US, including Morgenthaler Ventures, which has significant holdings in tech giants such as Apple.
