Unicorns—companies that reach a valuation of more than $1 billion—are rare. Uri Levine has built two.
As the cofounder of Waze—the world’s leading commuting and navigation app which Google acquired in 2013 for $1.15 billion—Levine is committed to spreading entrepreneurial thinking so that other founders, managers, and teams in the tech space can build their own highly valued companies. Levine offers an inside look at the creation and sale of Waze and his second unicorn, Moovit, unveiling the startup journey of failures, providing the formula that drove those companies to success, competing with industry veterans and giants alike.
As a passionate serial entrepreneur and disruptor, he hopes to inspire entrepreneurs to build the next wave of problem-solving technologies and companies.
