Uri Levine founded Waze, the GPS traffic navigation service, which he subsequently sold to Google for over $1 billion. He went on to launch Moovit (ā€œWaze for public transportationā€), which was sold to Intel—also for over $1 billion. He’s now founded a dozen companies.

I found Uri’s recommendations about how to be a better entrepreneur to be highly relevant. I wish I’d been able to read this book when I was CEO of my own startup!

Uri Levine is an amazing serial entrepreneur.

He founded numerous successful startups, and Waze is probably the most famous one. Uri shares his vast entrepreneurial experience, in a practical, straight forward and smart manner. He touches upon every aspect of building and running a startup - all the way from addressing the problem you want to solve, recruiting the right people, fund raising, scaling globally and more.Ā Ā 

From Uri's list on startup entrepreneurs.
