From Zero to One: How to Build a Startup That Will Change the Future

How to create a company from scratch, lead it to success, making it a market leader? Peter Thiel, the entrepreneur who created the payment system PayPal and the first investor in Facebook, believes that the foundation of any successful startup is a unique product that gives the company a winning monopoly status. Therefore, one of the important conditions for the survival of any project is the ability of the founders to look at the world in a new way to notice a winning idea that no one has yet developed. It is these ideas, first voiced in lectures at Stanford University, that form the basis of Peter Thiel's book. Using examples from Facebook, Microsoft, eBay, Twitter, LinkedIn, and many other companies, and most importantly - from his own unique experience working at PayPal, Peter explains what strategy a budding entrepreneur should choose to succeed in creating their own startup.
