PITCH, or What the next generation social network should be like
In the world of digital technologies, where large social networks and messengers dominate, creating something truly new and, no less importantly, truly sought-after is not an easy task. However, entrepreneur and IT specialist Grigory Kalinichenko was up for this difficult challenge. A native of Novorossiysk, a graduate of the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, he has been interested in computers and information technology since childhood. Back in the third grade at school, he assembled their first PC with his sister – that was the beginning of his path in IT. Today, Grigory is the founder of the PITCH social network focused on user safety, convenience and high-quality content. In an interview with The PLUS Journal, he tells us how the project developed, what makes PITCH different from competitors and what plans the team has for the future.
