Episode 45 is with Dan Park. 

Dan Park is the CEO of Clutch Inc., a tech company reinventing the way people buy cars through e-commerce. With a completely virtual showroom, you can browse, get prequalified for and order a vehicle that will be delivered right to your home, which you can return within 10 days. Before Clutch, Dan was the General Manager of UberEats Canada where he helped launch the food delivery platform in Canada. He also has an extensive background in venture capital as both a VC and entrepreneur.

We talk to Dan about he helped make UberEats the staple of fast food delivery in Canada and now how he’s reshaping consumer mindsets in car buying. He also details the experience of being on both sides of the VC table.

We had a blast with this one, so we hope you enjoy!
