ASAN

Asana, Inc.

A maker of work-management software, Asana helps teams organize projects, assign tasks, and track progress through a web and mobile app used by companies around the world. It was founded in 2008 by Dustin Moskovitz, a co-founder of Facebook, and Justin Rosenstein, who left the social network to build a better way to coordinate work. The name comes from the Sanskrit word for "seat" or "posture," borrowed from yoga to evoke focus and balance.
