Figma, the design software startup co-founded and led by CEO Dylan Field, recently went public in an IPO described as one of the wildest in recent memory. Despite regulatory challenges, Field has become a multi-billionaire, with Wall Street validating the company's value. Field has emphasized the broader rise of design as a key narrative behind Figma's success and discussed how artificial intelligence will transform the design industry, highlighting craft and attention to detail as critical differentiators. Separately, Figs, a direct-to-consumer medical apparel company founded by Indian immigrants Gurmer and Dashmeet Chopra, has demonstrated strong growth, achieving $176 million in sales and surpassing a $1 billion market capitalization. The company declined a $1 billion buyout offer from Story3 Capital in December and continues to expand, with plans to open its first physical store. Figs sells fitness-inspired streetwear that frequently sells out online every two weeks.
