Lời khuyên của CTO Uber dành cho các startup
Tips for startup entrepreneurs, by Mr. Thuan Pham, Uber's CTO, shared via TechinAsia.

1. Money will come when you do something that impacts a lot of people. If you chase only money, you will be really unhappy.
2. Building something that can impact and change people’s lives across the world will always keep you motivated.
3. Don’t take yourself too seriously and you will not hesitate to take bold risks in life. Have fun along the way.
4. Give back. Developing people will really make you satisfied at the end of it. Developing young ones in your teams who can lead and impact hundreds of lives – even after you’re gone – will leave you satisfied.

Lifeless goals
If your goal is to make money, let me tell you this, your venture is doomed before it even takes off. You may surely end up making some, but that will be in the short term.
You need commitment and conviction. And how does that come?
By setting inspiring goals. Goals that are beyond money and number of customers. Set goals that talk about creating value and real benefits to your customers.
Such goals drive passion to create a difference. This passion creates positivity. This positivity creates excitement and energy. And if you’ve got this, so will your customers. They will sense it and open their wallets for you. Money will follow.
Người thành công/nhiều tiền nói gì cũng là chân lý. Vì họ có quyền đó, đương nhiên.
Uber chỉ mất vài năm đã tạo được 15.000 việc làm (5.300 là tự lái, còn lại là qua các công ty vận tải), cạnh tranh với 17.000 lái xe taxi ở Paris,
Uber hấp dẫn với những người không có bằng đại học và không có kinh nghiệm làm việc, (chủ yếu ở ngoại ô phía bắc và phía đông nam paris, nơi kinh tế khó khăn nhất)

As most of you probably know, there is a legal campaign against Uber going on in France, here is part of the back story:
It took only a few years for Uber and other platforms challenging the Parisian taxis’ monopoly to create more than 15,000 jobs. (About 5,300 are self-employed and the rest are employed by minicab companies.) They compete against the 17,000 taxis in Paris.
“There has been a tidal wave of start-ups in the banlieues, an entire generation wants to be Uber drivers,” says Sabrina Lauro at Planet Adam, a non-profit organisation that helps residents in the suburbs set up businesses. Uber appeals to those without a diploma or work experience, she said.
Research seems to bear this out. Charles Boissel, a PhD student at HEC Paris, a business school, found that most minicab registrations were in the “suburbs of northern and south-eastern Paris, where economic conditions are harshest”.
