Meer over het boek

Elon Musk, Amy Rowe Clement, Peter Thiel, Julie Anderson, Max Levchin are names that boggle our imaginations. Once these people were unknown creators of an average online payment company, and today they are considered among the most influential in the technology industry. After creating PayPal, they financed and advised the world's leading companies: Tesla, Facebook, YouTube, SpaceX, Yelp, Palantir, LinkedIn, etc. In the process, they faced fierce competition, internal disagreements, online fraud and bankruptcy dotcoms in the 2000s, but their success was undeniable. After analyzing hundreds of interviews and documents, the author tells how these people changed our world forever. Thanks to their ingenuity and tireless search, much of what shapes our world today has been created: digital startups, systems without cash currency operations, mobile applications for money transfers.
