Delivery apps, especially in this hectic 2020, are a staple in our day-to-day lives. With thousands of restaurants to choose from, ease of use, and the comfort of staying at home, it's no wonder why these apps are such a success. But food delivery technology is also controversial. Accusations of monopolistic behavior and stingy earnings for contractors have surfaced lately. Plus, there's always the question: will we have to stay indoors for much longer?

We'll tell you all about it in this episode of Company Forensics. #startups #Slidebean #doordash 0:00 - DoorDash - Intro 0:51 - DoorDash - Origins 2:40 - DoorDash - Growth and funding 4:37 - DoorDash - Big investments, bigger questions 6:44 - DoorDash - Controversies and profit? 9:24 - DoorDash - The famed IPO DoorDash pitch deck template: https://slidebean.com/templates/doordash-pitch-deck-template Read the video transcription + sources: https://slidebean.com/blog/startups-doordash?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=content&utm_campaign=ba-content Check out Tom Nash's analysis on DoorDash IPO and many other interesting videos: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJwKCyEIFHwUOPQQ-4kC1Zw -- Follow us Twitter aka X: http://twitter.com/slidebean LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/company/slidebean Instagram: http://instagram.com/slidebean Caya Twitter aka X: http://twitter.com/cayahere LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/caya/ Turn on notifications for the podcast & rate it a 5-star for new episodes.
