"Oran said that he wants to invest, and he can give us the money by the end of the week." The pair met in silcon valley when they were both working at a startup accelerator called Angel Master. 'I was trying to tell am big wiet, stop throwing this all overan the house,' she recalls being told after their first meeting.

When Adi Tartako and her husband started the home design and renovation website Houzz in 2009, they had no expectation that it would grow into a global business. In fact, Adi was a hesitant entrepreneur, preferring to foster Houzz as a lifestyle business and pushing back when experts told her it could grow into something much bigger. But as Houzz morphed into a go-to site for users to get ideas for home improvement and connect with industry professionals, Adi decided to go all-in. She walked away from a promising career in finance to become the CEO of Houzz, helping lead it to a platform that now has 65 million users worldwide.
