Plato

Overview

Plato (ex-Birdly) is on a mission to help engineering and product leaders learn soft skills and build better teams. Plato does this through a powerful mentoring platform, where new leaders connect with seasoned professionals for 1-1 sessions, live Q&A, and a comprehensive knowledge base.

Plato Mentors have extensive experience in management and come from top tech companies like Google, Facebook, Lyft, Slack, Netflix, and Spotify - among others.

Founded in 2017 by two French entrepreneurs, Quang Hoang, and Jean-Baptiste Coger who met while attending the prestigious ISAE-Supaero school of engineering, Plato is one of the fastest-growing engineering and product mentoring platforms in the world.
