Spheron focuses on providing Platform as a Service (PaaS) specially designed for startups, optimizing scalability and minimizing infrastructural costs to boost growth and profitability. The network was co-founded by Mitrasish Mukherjee and Prashant Maurya.
With the successful completion of the $7 million fundraising round in August, Spheron has entered the second phase of its roadmap to foster growth and development in the existing Web3 Infra layer.
