    Zwiftcast Episode 90: Zwift CEO Eric Min discusses 2020 and Zwift’s new thinking

    Zwift CEO Eric Min guests on the Zwiftcast on Episode 90 to discuss some of the big changes that 2020 has brought to the platform.

    In an interview which is focused on this tumultuous year and on the consequences of the big new fund raise, Eric explains some company thinking.

    A flood of new users as the pandemic hit has caused Zwift to accelerate its plans to simplify the platform for new users. Simon grills Eric on what the consequences of this policy may be for existing users.

    Eric also discusses the decision to place Rowing on pause and his thinking around pricing. Eric also talks about what new investor Ilkkaa Paanen, the CEO of games company Supercell, will bring to Zwift.

    Simon, Shane and Nathan reflect on Eric’s thoughts and speculate on how the new thinking may be implemented.

    Elsewhere there’s an interview with Zwift’s Jacob Fraser talking about the new Zwift Racing League.

    Oh, and swooping Australian magpies!

    We hope you enjoy listening.

      Simon used to live in Yorkshire, but now he spends much of his time in the cycling paradise of Girona and the surrounding area, in Catalonia, Spain. In a previous life he was a journalist and TV producer, spending a career both in front of, but much longer behind, a camera and a microphone. After signing up as User No 10 at Zwift, Simon conjured up the first ever video review of the upstart new platform and later wondered if there was enough going on in Watopia to interest an audience. One hundred episodes and 1.2 million podcast downloads later, he had an answer. Simon has now happily handed over the reins of the Zwiftcast to a great new team. He’ll remain a lifelong friend of Zwift and its community. Recent health issues have kept Simon out of the saddle . . . but he’s now working on a Great Big Comeback.
