$200 Million Raised: How Synthesia is Replacing Hollywood with AI

In this episode of Jimmy’s Jobs of the Future, we sit down with Victor, the co-founder of Synthesia, who recently made headlines by becoming the fastest-growing unicorn in the United Kingdom.

Victor joins us to celebrate a massive milestone: raising $200M in a Series E round that brings the company to a $4B valuation. We dive deep into the journey of building an AI-native company long before the world was talking about ChatGPT, and what the future holds for the "attention economy".
