Fall in Love with the Problem, Not the Solution: A Handbook for Entrepreneurs, Updated Edition

Watch for our new edition to be published on February 2025
Unicorns—companies that reach a valuation of more than one billion—are rare. Uri Levine has built two - Waze and Moovit. In his book, Fall in Love with the Problem, Not the Solution, he shows you just how he did it.

Levine offers an inside look at the creation and sale of Waze and his second unicorn, Moovit, revealing the formula that drove those companies to compete with industry veterans and giants alike.

In the new edition of his book, to be published in February 2025 Levine dedicates a new chapter to CRISIS MANAGEMENT - SURVIVAL MODE for those coping with a major crisis, which we'll all experience at least once throughout our startup journey.

In the chapter, he shares his attitude to crisis management: "It doesn't matter what kind of crisis it is. The fact that the market is unfavorable for everyone, not just your company, doesn't matter.

"The fact that other people also suffer from the same problems is of no importance. It is your responsibility to solve your problems, whether it is harder due to external reasons or not. Should this prevent you from building one? No. This is why I believe resilience has become an essential skill in today's startup world."

These are the main topics of the book:

Firing and hiring
Disrupting "broken" markets
Raising Money
Understanding your users
Reaching product-market fit
Making scale-up decisions
Going global
Crisis Management - Survival Mode
Deciding when to sell

Fall in Love with the Problem, Not the Solution offers mentorship in a book from one of the world's most successful entrepreneurs and empowers you to build a successful business by identifying your consumers' biggest problems and disrupting the inefficient markets that currently serve them.
