The Business of StartUps

The dictionary of business has got a new word - 'startup'. Wherever you look you come across Startups in all sectors of business and industry. And a person who often figures in conversations about startups is an entrepreneur, engineer and inventor who's 45 today...

His name is featured in most of the top lists - whether Forbes or Time 

Global Game Changers

Most Powerful People

Most Influential Persons

Richest in Tech

... and so on

 

HIS NAME

Elon Musk

Elon Musk is best known for the companies that he has founded and he heads. And I have a song for three of these. 

The fastest, safest platform for online payments was co-founded by Elon Musk. And the song that I think best suits this company is from Dire Straits... Money For Nothing

Space Exploration Technologies Corporation, better known as SpaceX, manufactures and launches advanced rockets and spacecraft. Fly Me To The Moon

His most popular venture these days is Tesla - the automotive and energy storage company that designs, manufactures, and sells electric cars, electric vehicle powertrain components, and battery products. And the song for this company is Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life.

I must admit, not all the songs were my idea... the latter two songs featured above were his choice of songs when he did a guest DJ appearance at LA radio station KCRW.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELON MUSK

WE KNOW WE'LL HEAR A LOT ABOUT YOU THIS YEAR
