#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“This a book that delivers completely new and refreshing ideas on how to create value in the world.”—Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta

The great revelation of our era is that unexplored frontiers and untapped possibilities still exist, awaiting our exploration and the creation of new inventions. In his book, “Zero to One,” renowned entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel reveals how we can discover extraordinary paths to generate these novel breakthroughs.

Thiel sets forth a contrarian notion that we currently reside in an era of technological stagnation, even though we may be too engrossed in our dazzling mobile devices to realize it. While information technology has advanced rapidly, there is no reason to confine progress solely to computers or Silicon Valley. Progress can be made in any industry or business sector. The key lies in the most essential skill that every leader must master: the ability to think independently.

Repeating what others have already accomplished takes the world from 1 to n, merely adding more of what is already known. However, when you embark on something new, you go from 0 to 1. The next Bill Gates will not develop another operating system, nor will the next Larry Page or Sergey Brin create another search engine. The future’s champions will not achieve victory by ruthlessly competing in today’s market. Instead, they will transcend competition altogether by establishing truly unique enterprises.

“Zero to One” presents a compelling and optimistic outlook on the future of progress in America while introducing a fresh perspective on innovation. It commences by teaching us to ask the right questions that lead to discovering value in unexpected places.
