Ilya is such a motivating figure in my life, and we share an ethos not just for generosity but also this addiction for creating ideas and new businesses. He tells the story of his first business, which he built and sold at 17, and you’re going to love his perspective on what it’s like to be an immigrant in the US. You’ll also love his advice around why building a business now, in the face of a recession, is a really good idea.
