Tibor Laczay of Zenni Optical, is truly disrupting and transforming an industry fighting to retain its hold on the market -- and losing the battle.
In 2013 with his wife and co-founder, they started in their garage with no outside funding of any sort and created what is now Zenni optical.
If you are a glasses wearing individual like myself, then you've heard of and possibly purchased a pair of glasses or two from Zenni. Their growth has been staggering. As they celebrate 15 years in business, they are also celebrating selling 24 million pairs of glasses worldwide -- at a rate of 15,000 per day.
What started in their garage, now has its headquarters in Novato, Calfornia, with nearly 1,000 employees worldwide -- including one of the largest end-to-end manufacturing facilities in the world.
In this conversation we discuss:
Why disruption is inevitable and you can't stop innovation How to ignore your competition (and leave them trailing behind) Why you should forget the money and follow an extreme passionNow, let's hack...
