The app is designed to help drivers avoid traffic jams by crowdsourcing traffic information. The idea that this is going to be every day was with us on the first day, says CEO and co-founder John Sutter.

Many entrepreneurs fall in love with their products, services, their ideas, but according to my guest today, this is wrong. What Uri Levine argues is that you have to fall in love with the problem, not the solution. Uri is a passionate entrepreneur. Unicorns, which are companies that reach valuation of more than a billion dollars, are rare, but Uri has built two. He is the co-founder of Waze, the world's largest community-based driving traffic navigation app with more than 700 million users to date in which Google acquired for more than a billion dollars. In our conversation today and next week, he reveals the formula that drove these companies to compete with industry veterans and giants alike. By the end of this episode, you'll be able to be more relevant and valuable to your customers than your competitors.
