Guild is a platform purpose-built for professional groups, networks and communities to connect, communicate and collaborate. We’re passionate about helping community creators grow communities of expertise of the highest quality, integrity and value.
Guild was co-founded by Ashley Friedlein and Matthew O’Riordan.
They realised that none of the messaging apps or social media platforms (Facebook owned WhatsApp, Messenger, Facebook and LinkedIn Groups being most common in the West) offer the right kind of environments for professionals to connect and collaborate. Their focus is instead on harvesting behavioural data to sell more ads.
Ashley and Matthew wanted to create a new kind of ad-free, private, professional digital communications platform. A safe space to communicate, connect and collaborate for people who value their professional networks and their personal data.
