The story of Canva: Melanie Perkins At the age of 19, Melanie Perkins harbored a grand vision of revolutionizing the graphic design and publishing sectors. Despite starting modestly, she embarked on her entrepreneurial journey by launching a website aimed at simplifying and enhancing the collaborative process of yearbook design. With the triumph of her initial venture and an unexpected encounter with a venture capital investor, Melanie secured the support needed to pursue her original concept, setting the stage to challenge industry giants like Adobe and Microsoft. Fast forward to today, Melanie's brainchild, the online design platform Canva, boasts a valuation exceeding $1 billion, cementing its status among Australia's esteemed "unicorn" companies. And in our postscript segment "How You Built That," discover Tristan Corriveau's innovative endeavor with The One Gallon Soap Company, where he repurposed discarded hotel soap bars into liquid soap.
