EPISODE DESCRIPTION
Today's guest is Carl Pei, the CEO of Nothing (nothing.tech). This smartphone company is rapidly growing among giants like Apple and Samsung. While many other large corporations have tried to enter the smartphone market but have repeatedly withdrawn, Nothing is already being evaluated as the next big wave in the industry due to its unique design and strategy. Carl grew up in Sweden and enrolled in Sweden's top business school. However, upon seeing that they were teaching theories unchanged from 100 years ago, he chose to drop out. He then founded Nothing while traveling back and forth to China. Let's watch the video to hear about his startup journey! More About Nothing | https://nothing.tech/ This interview series is sponsored by .tech Domains - the very domain the startups featured in the series build their websites on. Building on a .tech is a strategic choice for many tech startups building innovations - as it crisply communicates the company’s tech-driven nature. If you’re an early-stage founder building on a .tech domain (or plan to), apply by Nov. 20 for a chance to fly to San Francisco to pitch in front of leading VC’s in Silicon Valley.
