How Putting Their Hopes In A ‘Space Unicorn’ Has Brother Duo Evan & Gregg Spiridellis Heading To Market In Cannes

Evan and Gregg Spiridellis are no strangers to the intersection of technology and entertainment. In 1999, back in the dial-up Internet days, the brothers founded JibJab, which quickly went viral for its flash animations and political satire videos such as the John Kerry vs. George W. Bush parody This Land! The pair later expanded into the children’s educational sector with StoryBots, which became an 11-time Emmy-winning franchise that originated on YouTube and was later acquired by Netflix. 

So, it’s perhaps no surprise that now the L.A.-based duo is leaning into the AI space with their new banner Spiridellis Bros. Studios, an AI-powered animation studio backed by investors including Polaris Founders Capital, Caruso Ventures, Google’s AI Futures Fund, Ashton Kutcher, Guy Oseary and more.
