Evan Spiegel, welcome to The Diary Of A CEO!
Evan is one of the founders of @snapchat. An app that changed how we communicate. It introduced disappearing messages, ‘Stories’ and the concept of ephemeral media and everyone else followed.
But the story behind its creation is even more surprising…
We cover:
• Why he turned down $3 billion from Mark Zuckerberg?!
• The mistake that nearly destroyed Snapchat!
• The company that is copying all of Snapchat’s products.
• What Evan would tell his younger self?
• What they teach you at Stanford…
and so much more!
In this conversation, we get to see Evan in a very different light and open up about his personal growth as a leader.
This isn’t just a tech story. It’s a masterclass in vision, risk and reinvention.
