Any company like Trade Desk
A friend of mine joined in a startup in Seattle. After 2 years, Trade desk acquired the company ( gave stock options to the employees in 2018). Now he is 5M rich. Any startup companies possible good fortune in similar way ? Or is that pure luck which might not happen that often ?
Look for some big investors such as blackrock, tiger and see where they are investing. No one can guarantee success but it improves your chances significantly. P.S. - never go to a startup recently funded by softbank.
Airtable?
Mostly luck unless he had a rationale that predicted this happening :) Best ways to increase odds of finding this: look for top investors, strong founders w track record, A-player employees who could work anywhere, sticky business And expect to do this a few times, although one big win is all you need Here’s a list I’m tracking: topstartups.io
Amobee
