Founding Story
Oleg Shardin co-founded Miro (originally RealtimeBoard) in 2011 alongside Andrey Khusid. Based in Perm, Russia, the two realized that remote design agencies had absolutely no way to replicate the experience of standing around a physical whiteboard. Shardin architected the highly complex early software capable of smoothly rendering thousands of digital sticky notes in real-time across the globe without browser lag. (Exact birth year remains publicly undisclosed).
