About Epic Inspiring the next generation to develop a love of reading and learning. Epic was born out of a single question: How do we make books more accessible to kids? As parents, it always seemed strange to us that our kids could so easily play games and watch videos on their iPhones and iPads, but the same couldn’t be said for books. So in 2013, we decided to build the first “epic” reading experience, designed just for kids. Today, Epic has grown into an award-winning subscription service, which gives millions of families and classrooms instant, unlimited access to thousands of books, videos and quizzes from leading publishers to help kids everywhere read, learn and grow. Our Founders Suren Markosian, CEO and Co-Founder Kevin Donahue, Co-Founder X A serial entrepreneur at heart, Suren has successfully built and scaled several large consumer businesses including Crowdstar, which rose to become one of the largest social gaming companies with over 200 million users. Another notable company he founded, List.am – is now the largest e-commerce company and online destination in Armenia. more Before co-founding Epic, Kevin worked at Google in Strategic Partnerships and was a member of YouTube’s original team, serving as Vice President of Content. As part of YouTube’s senior management team, Kevin was head of marketing and led content partnerships, successfully establishing YouTube’s earliest partnerships with major entertainment and media companies. At YouTube, Kevin helped shape the company’s early content strategy and spoke on behalf of the company in publications including Newsweek, Forbes and The New York Times. more Our Executive Team Tim Ditlow VP of Content + more Allison Van Houten CMO + more Norman Basch VP of Business Development + more Vishwa Ranjan VP of Product + more Bernie Murphy COO + more Tim Catlin VP of Engineering + more 2013 The first Epic experience is born to help kids easily access digital books 90% Number of Epic Educators who would recommend Epic to colleagues Advisory Board Lane Merrifield Former CEO/Co-Founder, ClubPenguin and EVP Disney Online Studios.
