“The most successful organizations understand that the purpose of any business is to create value for customers, employees, and investors and that the interests of these three groups are inextricably linked and should be aligned horizontally. I am always focused on Creating Value. You could have all the technologies built into your app but there’s no point until the User wants to use it. User Experience should always be kept in mind while designing an app, this is something very Elementary.” says Siddharth Nayak.
There have been many instances of small apps generating big success and making their creators exceedingly rich. Some apps have been acquired by larger companies for huge sums of money, for example when Facebook bought Instagram and WhatsApp.
Ola has a market cap of about $6.5 billion as of mid-2020. Snapchat has a market cap of $26.15 billion. Uber and Lyft have caps of $54.6 billion and over $9.35 billion, respectively. Airbnb was worth over $38 billion at the end of 2019.
