Coupang: Korean E-Commerce Craze - [Business Breakdowns, EP.169]
Manage episode 423127010 series 2906026
Today, we are breaking down the South Korean e-commerce giant Coupang. If we ran through the taxonomy of investor interests, this Coupang conversation checks many boxes on that list. It is a founder-owned and operated business, a business that went through a massive pivot years into existence, a business that's replicating the Amazon model to success, and a business with healthy debates on the TAM & financial trajectory going forward.
Our guest today is Drew Cohen from Speedwell Research. We want Business Breakdowns to be the most efficient way for you to learn about a company, so we pack that information as densely as possible into about an hour of each episode, but if you are itching for more on Coupang, check out Drew's full report at speedwellresearch.com. Please enjoy this Breakdown of Coupang.
