LOS ALTOS, California – July 17, 2023 – Descope, the drag-and-drop authentication platform for developers, today announced its inclusion in the first edition of the Redpoint InfraRed 100, a comprehensive list of the next 100 promising private companies in Cloud Infrastructure. This curated selection of companies represents the next generation of leaders in the industry, poised to make a significant impact in the cloud infrastructure market.

In celebration of this accolade, Slavik Markovich (Descope Co-Founder and CEO) and Rishi Bhargava (Descope Co-Founder) are joining Redpoint at Nasdaq alongside other InfraRed 100 company leaders to discuss the future of cloud infrastructure.

Descope helps developers add authentication and user management capabilities to their apps with a few lines of code.
