The figures are mindblowing, it’s probably the fastest growing tech platform in the tourism industry, it has changed lives all around the world, especially in France. Over the next decade and a half, the famous airbeds gave way to spare bedrooms, then entire homes—and before long, a Y Combinator upstart had gone global. Today, the company that flipped lodging on its head isn’t stopping at homes: with “from couch to castle” as its rallying cry, Airbnb is pivoting into services and experiences, on its way to becoming the ultimate all-in-one travel “super app.” In this unmissable episode, Brian Chesky pulls back the curtain on two decades of explosive growth—while never losing sight of his “founder mode.” You’ll hear: - Brian’s top hacks for turning a profit on Airbnb - How Airbnb’s strategic pivot layers in everything from private chefs to hair stylists - Building a platform people will use in unexpected ways - Why AI will upend the way we interact with every app - The two bold bets that catapulted Airbnb to global domination Whether you’re curious about the past, excited for the future of travel tech, or just want to pick the brain of a true Silicon Valley OG, this episode of GDIY is a can’t-miss. ▶️ Find everything we talked about on the episode's show notes : https://www.gdiy.fr/podcast/brian-chesky-vo/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The episodes are released on YouTube three days after they premiere on audio platforms, so feel free to subscribe to Generation Do It Yourself on : - Spotify : https://open.spotify.com/show/6jCObFeQTf0VARXdMv9iE4?si=737e8c89a9864212 - Apple Podcast : https://podcasts.apple.com/fr/podcast/g%C3%A9n%C3%A9ration-do-it-yourself/id1209142994 - Deezer : https://www.deezer.com/fr/show/53644 - YouTube Music : https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWT7hkKacBMKEQlMyOMt6qSzKHTGguP9I --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TIMELINE : 00:00:00 : From the original “airbeds” to the billion dollar company 00:13:01 : The best tips to earn a fortune as a host on Airbnb 00:21:08 : The largest demographic spectrum : from couch to castles 00:29:56 : How to create a platform that enables creativity and the new “experience” feature 00:44:34 : $80 billions transactions... in 2024 only 00:51:19 : The right way to use Airbnb as a guest and as a host 01:10:41 : The secret to maintain core values in your company 01:22:38 : How to stay close to co-founders and employees 01:30:11 : What will be the impact of AI on our professional and personal lives 01:39:08 : The two bets/truths that made Airbnb so successful --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE TEAM : Host: Matthieu Stefani Editorial Director & Producer: Clémence Lepic Executive Producer: Lhou Lagrange Production Manager : Matéo Dos Santos Video Editor: Axel Thoreux Audio Editor & Sound Designer: Morgan Prudhomme (Studio Module) SOCIAL MEDIA : ▶️ TikTok : https://www.tiktok.com/@mattintouch ▶️ Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/gdiypodcast ▶️ Twitter : https://twitter.com/gdiypodcast ▶️ Website : https://www.gdiy.fr ▶️ Newsletter : https://www.gdiy.fr/mail
