We dig into all this as well as the future of commerce, contrarian ideas, COVID tailwinds, how to make marketplace economics work with Niraj Shah, Co-founder, Co-Chairman & CEO of Wayfair.
Niraj co-founded the company with Steve Conine back in 2002 and the pair rapidly grew the business to become one of the largest online destinations for home furnishings, housewares, home improvement goods and more, generating around $14 billion in revenue.
