Prior to co-founding Mohawk, Mr. Sarig led the Financial Services Engineering department at Coverity, a leading software startup providing code quality and security solutions for top financial institutions and hedge funds in New York including NYSE, Nasdaq, JPMC and Barclays, from April 2012 to April 2014.

In this episode I'm going to introduce you to one of the ultimate dealmakers, Yaniv Sarig, the CEO of Mohawk Group. His company is valued at over a billion dollars based on one incredibly powerful idea: use software and AI to help launch e-commerce products.
Yaniv's software and AI technology finds wide-open e-commerce niches then stuffs an exciting new product into that niche before anyone else can even blink. Mohawk runs test launches, identifies market demand and creates new products faster than you think is possible. Then Mohawk owns that market, and starts looking for the next one. I've learned a lot about dealmaking from Yaniv, and I'm sure you will too, because while his software does a lot of the heavy lifting, ultimately it's Yaniv's dealmaking skills that make all this possible, to the tune of a billion dollars. Watch this episode and learn from a master.
Enjoy!
