[Founder Notes] Jack Ma

"Jack knew people." We are more importantly a community than our marketplace. "Let's be responsible to our customers." Don't be greedy to get the money up front.

Understanding localized culture informs how users expect to interact with technology. Jack started two companies before Alibaba. He came early and struck early.

He made a career out of being underestimated. Business people solve problems among others with the same problem. That was always his edge.
