Zwischen Unicorn und Abgrund: Flink-Gründer Oliver Merkel

from OMR Podcast · host Philipp Westermeyer - OMR

Vom Unternehmensberater zum Kopf hinter einem der schnellsten Unicorns Deutschlands: Der Flink-Gründer erzählt, wie der Lieferdienst in nur einem Jahr von 0 auf 80 Millionen Euro Umsatz wuchs, mit weit über 2 Milliarden US-Dollar bewertet wurde – und Ende 2023 plötzlich am Abgrund stand. Im OMR Podcast spricht Oliver Merkel außerdem darüber, warum Flink im Gegensatz zu Gorillas, Getir und Co. überlebt hat, warum das Zehn-Minuten-Lieferversprechen eigentlich teures Marketing war und welche Pläne er mit seinem neuen Unternehmen namens Blocks verfolgt.
