The report states that Lopes Lara and Kalshi's co-founder, Mansour, both grew up in Lebanon and met at MIT. They were part of the same international student circle and took very similar courses, both majoring in computer science. Their relationship deepened in 2018 when they both interned at Five Rings Capital in New York. One evening, on their way back to their internship apartments in the financial district, they suddenly conceived the idea of creating a prediction market. Kalshi was born. Previously, it was reported that Kalshi completed a $1 billion funding round at a valuation of $11 billion. This funding round was led by Paradigm, with other investors including Sequoia Capital, a16z, and Y Combinator.
