Netta Shalgi: Why you actually need to reinvent the wheel...

What this episode covers

Luggage isn’t an industry you’d think of as ripe for disruption. Unless your name is Netta Shalgi. Today’s guest set out to make a better suitcase. He started his journey 11 years ago with an idea and some design skills. Fast forward to last year, his G-Ro luggage launch raised over $4 million on Kickstarter. The first bags shipped at the end of the year. They’re dope. Just making a cool bag with big as wheels wasn’t enough. Netta is out to build a brand that better suits the needs of modern travelers than the current options.
