Introducing The 50.
Where I share the story and lessons of a top 50 largest company in the world.
Time for #1.
This company went from 0 to $200bn in 5.5 years...
Let's dive in👇
Pinduoduo is the 50th largest company in the world.
If Costco & Disneyland had a baby, you'd get Pinduoduo.
A discount online shopping experience littered with contests & coupons.
490 million MAUs.
$8.5 billion in 2020 revenue.
14% of China's e-commerce market.
What's most fascinating isn't its size. It's its speed.
Pinduoduo was founded in 2015!
It IPOd in 2018.
The company 119x'ed its revenue in just 6 years.
This is where my fascination lies.
And to understand Pinduoduo, we must understand its fascinating founder.
Meet Colin Huang.
Probably haven't heard of him, but absolutely worth knowing.
The 41-year-old internet entrepreneur is the Founder & CEO of Pinduoduo.
He's #28 on the world's richest list ($50bn).
The Hangzhou native loved math & science early, earning him a spot at a top foreign language school & an internship at Microsoft.
He attended Wisconsin for college and joined a small tech co after graduation called...Google.
