Platform, a gaming and esports bar and restaurant in London, should be celebrating its one-year birthday around about now. Unfortunately, however, like many businesses and spaces in the United Kingdom and abroad, the coronavirus lockdown has led to a temporary closure of the casual-chic venue’s doors.
We spoke with three members of the team behind Platform: Co-founder brothers Tomaso and Nicolò Portunato, CEO and COO, respectively; and Lucas Weintraub, Chief Marketing Officer. As part of our ongoing series, Coping with coronavirus, the trio offered insight into how they’ve approached life in quarantine with a business that depends on its physical space.
