KPCB's Michael Abbot sat down with Ilya Sukhar, co-founder and CEO of Parse days before Parse was acquired by Facebook. Parse is a cloud app platform that provides a set of SDKs that enable developers to focus on the execution of their application instead of rebuilding backend functionality for every mobile platform.

Sukhar shares his experience of starting Y Combinator as a solo founder and connecting with co-founder Kevin Lacker through Paul Graham. The duo then joined up with another co-founding team about a month into YC to build Parse.
