S6 Bonus: rocessing 20% of Global Equities: Engineering Real-Time Data Fabrics with Robert Cooke of 3forge

Ever since he was a little kid, Robert Cooke always had a fascination with computers. Even when he was super young, when he didn't know much about them, he was still intrigued by this magic box. At the same time, he loved legos - but found it very expensive to expand his lego set. To contrast that, he could build as big as he wanted within a computer - and he was hooked. He built video games, explored databases, and even an accounting system in his teens.As he started validating a new idea, Robert visited a number of top tier banks and looked for consistency in the problem they were facing. He found a starting point to build out a data platform, to enable his three pillars of data delivery.This is the creation story of 3Forge.SponsorsImmediateOrbitPostmarkStytchVerb DataWebapp.ioLinksWebsite: https://www.3forge.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robert-cooke-a7835b69/Our Sponsors:* Check out Cash App and use my code CASHAPP10 for a great deal: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/mt82fpxl #CashAppPod.
