👤 Guest: Jan Bednář is a Czech entrepreneur from Bakov nad Jizerou and the youngest Czech self-made billionaire, named by American Forbes to its 30 under 30 list. At 17 he moved to the US, where he grew a university startup into the fulfillment company ShipMonk — with over $400 million in revenue, nearly 3,000 employees, and warehouses across the US. At the turn of 2020/2021 he sold 49% of the company to the fund Summit Partners without losing control. Today he runs his own family office, invests (including in SpaceX), and lives between Czechia, Miami, and Canada.
