Chris Barton Shazam Bio
The $400 million sale to Apple: how Chris started, ran and sold Shazam. In 1999, Barton was in transition to the second year of MBA, and completing his summer internship at Microsoft in London. During his internship period, he used to discuss random ideas with Dhiraj Mukherjee (one of the co-founders of Shazam) and verbally agreed on doing business together once they had a concrete idea to work on. Chris Barton was the original CEO and Founder of Shazam Entertainment, the London-based music recognition company. He currently works at Dropbox. Chris is perhaps the most driven person I have met. Shazam was a dream he invented, and his persistence and dedication was what eventually created the company.
