Opening Bid Unfiltered is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.
The business of sleep has gone well beyond hawking mattresses, pillows, and bedframes. And it’s with good reason that seemingly everyone is analyzing their sleep data on various hardware devices. Roughly one in three adults in the U.S. regularly gets insufficient sleep, driving demand for new tools that can monitor, analyze, and improve rest. Enter Eight Sleep, founded in 2014 by Matteo Franceshetti and his wife, Alexandra Zatarain. Eight Sleep has raised about $260 million since its inception, from the likes of Khosla Ventures to F1 notables Zak Brown and Charles Leclerc. The company sells bedding hardware and software – under the Pod name – that tracks sleep patterns and can heat and cool. The company’s valuation stands at nearly $1 billion. It has generated more than $500 million in Pod sales. Yahoo Finance executive editor Brian Sozzi sits down on the Opening Bid Unfiltered podcast with Eight Sleep co-founder and CEO Matteo Franceschetti to go inside the future of more advanced sleep, and what’s next for one of its leaders in the space.
