Description

Ever wonder how Shazam was founded? What did it take to build Shazam? 

In this episode, Michael Oved sits down with Philip Inghelbrecht, the cofounder of Shazam (the application that can identify music based on a short sample played using the microphone on the device, which was later acquired by Apple for $400 million). Philip discusses what he did in his youth to prepare him for entrepreneurship, how he founded Shazam, where the name came from, the first song he Shazamed, and his advice to the next generation.
