Serial Entrepreneurship with Ali & Upile: Ep 10: Yariv

Yariv is the CEO of Leap Gaming. He started the company with little idea of the industry and followed a non-traditional path. He talks about why competition is not enough, and you should aim for domination in your industry. He also mentions why listening to the users isn't always the best way to innovate, and sometimes you have to put your ideas out there.

Serial Entrepreneurship with Ali & Upile: Episode 1

Serial Entrepreneurship with Ali & Upile: Episode 1

This is our first podcast episode..ever. Be merciful.

In this episode we talk about why we are starting a podcast on serial entrepreneurship. Both of us have worked on a number of different ideas but felt there was something missing. We wanted to learn from successful entrepreneurs who have started multiple companies. Instead of asking them for a coffee, we decided to record our conversations and offer our learnings to the world.

This episode focuses on what we've worked on, what entrepreneurship means to us, what kinds of questions we'll ask, and what inspires entrepreneurs to create. We talk about the mix of corporate, university and startup work, and provide some inspirations to those on our path.

Let us know what you think!
