Ankur Agrawal
CEO & Founder
Inhabitr
Ankur founded Inhabitr in 2018, after moving a few countries and cities he became convinced that the furniture market was under-served in terms of affordable designer furniture on subscription, which met the needs of the present-day millennials who move a lot. Inhabitr, which is a technology platform, connects the furniture world with businesses like Hotels, Student Housing and Multifamily apartments looking for designer furniture on subscription. Inhabitr uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to curate furniture from various sources and enables furniture factories and suppliers to participate in rental commerce to allow furniture to be re-used and therefore also save the planet.
