Slight criticism: sometimes the problem is important, but the customer isn't well educated/informed. E.g. lots of people only start exercising after a health scare. Doesn't matter to the startup though, an important problem that nobody cares about brings in 0 dollars just the same as a non-problem.
Beginning with niche areas like medical delivery is a genius idea. I heard from PBS News just the other day talking about organ donations trashed due to the logistics failures. The urgency in delivery is far more felt than Amazon's Prime Air.
Keenan and Keller's story with Zipline is a testament to how embracing unconventional ideas can revolutionize industries and improve lives globally. Your journey reinforces the value of persistence and vision in overcoming skepticism and logistical challenges. 👏
@kbyouknowbaby oh simple its use to sound unsmarts or like a troll you often can't read emotion as words but emojis can help you bridge they are simple so its relatable to the common person and can be used in a variety of ways.
...We stopped going to the moon AND flying Concorde not because "in some ways technology moves backwards" but because both are things that proved to not be economically viable / not worth the expense for the end result. We got all the information we could gather in 6 manned moon missions, essentially, and Apollo cost an INCREDIBLE amount of money. Something like 10x NASAs modern budget. Concorde was great at first but the price the airlines had to charge became not worth it - Concorde was small, hot, cramped. For half the price of a Concorde ticket, by the time it was retired, you could fly first class with a fully lay-down seat, WiFi with laptops and charging were coming very soon, etc - the idea of "not wasting time" for business people going across the pond by taking a very expensive, cramped flight was replaced by "take a first class red-eye from NY to London, get some work done as I eat a nice meal in comfort, then sleep, wake up refreshed and go to the meeting the next morning". To say nothing of things like Zoom or Skype replacing the need for as many in-person business meetings.
if there exist 1000 likes I would click. I envy you white curls for pursuing such inspiring technology and changing the world for the better. If I were born or lived in the USA, I would also be involved in world-changing technologies. I envy you white curls for pursuing such inspiring technology and changing the world for the better.

You don't have to be born in the US to be involved in "world changing technologies", you can start where you are, I am sure there are enough problems you can solve right there.
@@khanate2750 Most of these companies are profiting from government contracts in some way, or their declared money they say they have is just 80% investor & loan money. They don't really do anything useful, they just get some money for research, output some result paper & are gone within the next year or so.
You're the scam 😂 This company has saved thousands of lives since it began working in Rwanda. I live in Rwanda and have visited their operations-what they are doing is incredible. The Rwandan government took a chance on them, and it has paid off greatly for both us Rwandans and the company.they are getting better building new drones capable more and delivering more than blood. Jealousy is not a good thing.
Haaa, Zipline is scaling exponentially and internationally, and are way ahead of any competitors. Their CFO is none other than Deepak Abuja, who was Tesla’s CFO from around 500 cars per year to 250,000 cars per year. Zipline is changing the world!

7:10 amazing point “if the problem is important enough the customer will meet you half way”

Absolutely!
Not only niche business, but niche location as well. Doing it outside the US is what made it possible. They would have been destroyed here.
@@PeterA650 why? Because of regulations or competition?
@@NanheeByrnesPhD Both.
"Fall in love with problems" that's very important point.

wow. nothing excites me than seeing young people make a huge impact in any field.
7:56 we do this not because it is easy but because we thought it would be easy… love it
The "grandmother test" is a fantastic way to describe it and a bar to set. Tech isnt just for the nerds. The nerds are masters, tech is for all
Keller did a great job motivating those interested in the industry to have think skin and a mentality of a winner! Thanks so much
Amazing story!! All the best to the zip line team! I wish this could go world wide!!
I think this is my new favorite video from EO. Absolutely love the message, the visuals, everything. Glad to learn of a company like Zipline
Been following these folks for a while. Nice to see them popping off
God bless Rwanda ❤
What a great video. So many critical takeaways just flowing in the stream of the narrative.
god bless this channel
I like this guy, he's like the good version of palmer lucky
Still waiting to be able try it south of suvvyvale. For emergency supplies like ice cream, cookie dough, booze.
That advice was absolutely incredible!
The first seconds are great
I love you zip!

Love this! great inspirations for us to keep pursuing what we believe can make a big difference in peoples lives tomorrow.

You should make the stock public
American Dream

Try compressed air and pneumatics
Isn't ZIP line almost bankrupt?
isn't that the reason they are advertising for hype
Helping Africans- you can’t make money because they don’t have them. Move to rich country and it will work.
i know when you started itself you will be a billion dollar company....hahaha
Why use a 3000lbs car for a 3lb delivery?
0 profit
This is a promotional content. This company is a scammy failling startup.
What makes you say that? genuinely curious

I live in Rwanda, and I can tell you, Its not failing and its no more a start-up
