In 2003, our co-founders David Hauser and Siamak Taghaddos met as undergrads studying at Babson College. Their business partnership blossomed and together they developed the beginnings of Grasshopper, the Entrepreneur’s Phone System.
For the past 11 years, we’ve worked hard to build a brand and product that empowers entrepreneurs to succeed. We’ve transformed our product, logo, and even our name, but it’s our core values, brand promise, and commitment to empowering entrepreneurs that have made us successful.
As a result of that success, we are happy to announce that Grasshopper has been acquired by Citrix, a well-respected leader in communications and collaboration solutions for small businesses. You may know them for GoToMeeting, ShareFile, and GoToWebinar.
Our teams share the same vision and culture, making Citrix the perfect home as we grow. We remain committed to our original mission, and will continue to provide a great virtual phone system that empowers entrepreneurs, regardless of their size.
With Citrix’s resources, we’ll be able to provide you with even more services to help you start, run, and grow your businesses.
