AG Grid have an exciting story to tell which will appeal to Software Developers, Entrepreneurs and the Start Up community. We are experienced podcast guests and conference speakers. We can talk with technical clarity and humour.
Sample talking points:
- Our new React Rendering engine is 100% React. This was a major refactoring. We have a single core JavaScript engine used by all our framework GUIs. We have Rendering Engines for React, Vue, Angular and JavaScript.
- Our Data Visualisation Component and SDK is used by over 50% of the Fortune 500 and available as a mixed Open Source and Commercial product.
- Self-funded, profitable and growing (even through the pandemic) we can talk about business lessons learned. AG Grid was a company built by programmers, to make application development easier for other programmers.
- Technologically advanced and dependency free. Which means we've had to implement our own IoC containers, dependency management, templating engines, and understand browsers to make it fast and performant.
- Small co-located team of experienced programmers working on an Agile project. Originally Java Developers we use TypeScript extensively to make working on a large code base easier.
- Our product is framework agnostic we've had to architect our code to support working with React, Angular, Vue, JavaScript and TypeScript. We have to keep up to date with all technologies and be ready to drop frameworks when they lose commercial momentum.

What is AG Grid - the product?
AG Grid is an SDK and Web Component to render data in a grid and in charts. Our aim is to make it as simple and easy as possible for a development team to create rich interactive data rendering and exploration environments for their users.
- Out of the box it has support for Grouping, Aggregation, Sorting, Filtering and Embedded Charting.
- Simple configuration options through code.
- Customisation and styling using any framework component.
- It's fast and can handle millions of rows of data.
What makes AG Grid Different?
- AG Grid is framework agnostic. We don't tie ourselves to a specific framework, that limits the options of our users.
- By creating a framework agnostic grid, programmers can learn the API once and keep using the Grid even if they change JavaScript Frameworks.
- We support JavaScript, TypeScript, Angular, React and Vue.
- We release the product as open source with a free community edition, we make our money by supplying an Enterprise edition with commercial support.
- As well as Open Source development we sponsor podcasts, conferences and tools that make a difference to us like Plunker and WebPack
