Sahil Lavingia, Gumroad
Age: 19
Lavingia is one of the young entrepreneurs who faced problems with the traffic in and around Silicon Valley. He remembers the last summer day, when he had several meetings with VC firms on the Sand Hill road and had no car to get there. The journey which usually took a small time cost him hours on that day and he also recalls another hot and sweaty day when he walked into the VC firm’s office in a pair of trousers. But none of this stopped the VC’s from investing as Lavingia raised $1.1 million for his startup.
