The story of DoorDash: How it conquered the food delivery market with first principle thinking
Shares
DoorDash went IPO and is a story of sheer execution from first principle thinking. DoorDash (fourth) cofounder, Evan Charles Moore shares the journey.
On 5/29/13 (my birthday!), I filed to incorporate Palo Alto Delivery Inc., later renamed DoorDash Inc.
It’s mostly not my story to tell. But I’ll share a bit today about how it started.

You’ll hear people say the team was obviously impressive, or they had conviction in the vision, but we were not special, it was not a hot space, and no one thought it made sense at first. Starting from the belief that we had to “earn every inch,” as Tony often said, was integral.
