These 2 successful young entrepreneurs are the founders of a company called Dropbox which they officially started in 2007. It is a free file-syncing service that uses computer clouds and allows people to sync photos, videos, other files, etc. anytime they need. Customers are able to both share their files and also put them into storage as well. This business is in the category of software/infrastructure and it is very interesting how this business idea came to be. Drew Houston came up with the idea one day while he was waiting at a bus stop and was trying to finish some work on his laptop when he realized he did not have his USB with him so he was not able to do any work. He started to write some computer codes during this and it stemmed into the idea for the company Dropbox. He teamed up with Arash Ferdowsi who was a student at MIT in computer science and they became the dream team for this business to thrive. The company is very successful and has over 500 million users. Their overall market cap comes to about $16.7 billion. They have even expanded their company into 4 other languages besides English including Spanish, German, French, and Japanese. These men definitely possess important entrepreneurial traits and I especially like how Drew Houston used a personal story/experience that had occurred in his life to come up with a solution to this problem that many other people most likely experience as well. They have shown innovation through personal struggle and have created a widely popular platform for people when the world of technology was still advancing (considering they founded it in 2007). The pair were able to take advantage of their skills and the time period the world was in and obtain great success from their hard work.
