The Shopify Story - How a Startup Rocketed to E-commerce Giant by Empowering Millions of Entrepreneurs

Larry MacDonald

Sinopse

A remarkable business success story, follow the rapid rise from small startup to one of Canada’s top companies through CEO turnover, near-bankruptcy, and subsequent billionaire status 
		 
“An informative and revealing look at one of the greatest Canadian startup success stories.” — Darcy Keith, Globe and Mail investment editor
		 
The story of Shopify, now the second-largest e-commerce platform in North America, is all about starting and growing businesses. In this inspirational corporate history, you can follow the company’s rocket-like growth over its first two decades and meet its major players, such as Tobias Lütke, who co-founded the company in 2004, transitioned from programmer to CEO in 2008, and thereafter steered Shopify to its incredible growth trajectory, relying more on “first principles” thinking than the business nostrums of MBA classes. Learn more about the executive team that contributed to Shopify’s performance during the years leading up to its initial public offering, which turned them into multimillionaires and paved the way for Shopify to enable millions of entrepreneurs to start businesses and enrich the global economy. In The Shopify Story, economist and business journalist Larry MacDonald investigates the factors behind Shopify’s growth and shares lessons for entrepreneurs, business managers, employees, programmers, policymakers, and investors.

Legal fees and hidden costs dwarf financial stakes, forcing a choice between frustrating settlement or a long slog through litigation’s due process—either path feeling like legalized extortion. This huge and growing gap in our civil justice system occupies a no-man’s-land of prevailing injustice between small claims and high stakes disputes, defying all efforts to control it for decades.Until now. Legal insider Robert Christopher cuts to the core of the problem, offering an effective and practical solution that exposes and deters the claims of schemers and opportunists while making justice attainable and affordable for honest adversaries seeking a better path.Just Right articulates and promotes a simple and innovative neutral-driven approach to conflict resolution, instead of one driven by competing lawyer teams.
