Best line of the video: "The reason to start a company shouldn't be to start a company, but should be to solve a problem which you truly truly care about"

[@pradeepverse]

I too thought the same :) Wise words.

[@rajyouthsense3738]

Yeahhhh.....

[@Whocares0009]

He had 20 failed ideas before surely he definitely didn’t like those 20 ideas now did he?

[@theartofrajgauri9613]

I agree.. one should really be passionate about solving problems-both existing or the future ones. I recommend reading Paul Graham's blog on how to get startup ideas. Worth reading for to-be founders!

[@HumanOptimization]

Thats what all entrepreneurs say to make themselves sleep at night lol

[@ashishkumar-if4io]

Who is watching this after Instacart's $13 billion IPO What a journey it has been, kudos to Apoorva 👏

[@cklair1]

Does anyone know; In the early days of Instacart (his first or second retailer), how did Apoorva manage to create a product database? Did he ask the retailer or did he use some other way?

[@fahimsattar4762]

CJ yes my answer aswell

[@koikoi5520]

He just went in the stores and take pictures of the product he wanted on instacart

[@Rocky-Bhai-12345]
