Como tres chicos comunes trastornaron una industria, ganaron miles de millones y crearon gran controversia.

El unico libro sobre la creacion y crecimiento de la plataforma de hospedaje mas grande del mundo.

Airbnb comenzo como una loca idea de sus cofundadores, Brian Chesky, Joe Gebbia y Nathan Blecharczyk; hoy en dia ha irrumpido la industria hotelera de 500 mil millones de dolares, y su valuacion de 30 mil millones de dolares es mayor que la del Hilton y cercana a la del Marriott.

Leigh Gallagher, editora de Fortune, explora el exito de Airbnb junto con el lado mas polemico de su historia: los reguladores quieren frenar su rapida expansion, los lideres de la industria hotelera luchan contra la ruptura que les causo, y tanto los residentes como los clientes enfrentan las consecuencias involuntarias de la apertura de viviendas privadas para el consumo publico. Este es el primer estudio a profundidad de los tres cofundadores mientras dirigen la compania hacia un territorio nuevo y desconocido que va mas alla de un simple alojamiento.

Para cualquier persona que haya pensado en alquilar su casa en Airbnb para ganar dinero extra o que haya tenido la tentacion de viajar y permanecer en una residencia de Airbnb, o que incluso tenga una idea disruptiva propia, este libro es una lectura obligada."Una apasionante historia de audaz espiritu emprendedor e irrupcion de la gran industria, La historia de Airbnb es un cuento para nuestros tiempos.".-Charles Duhigg, autor de los bestsellers Mas rapido, mas agudo y mejor y El poder del habito.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

An investigative look into a beloved, disruptive, notorious start-up

This is the remarkable behind-the-scenes story of the creation and growth of Airbnb, the online lodging platform that is now the largest provider of accommodations in the world. At first just the wacky idea of cofounders Brian Chesky, Joe Gebbia, and Nathan Blecharczyk, Airbnb has become indispensable to millions of hosts and travelers around the world. Fortune editor Leigh Gallagher presents the first nuanced, in-depth look at the Airbnb phenomenon - the successes and controversies alike - and takes us behind the scenes as the company's young CEO steers into increasingly uncharted waters.

"A fast-paced, fun dive into one of the seminal firms of our time; through the tale of Airbnb, Leigh Gallagher shows us how the sharing economy can be a force for emotional connection - as well as for social and business disruption." - Rana Foroohar, Financial Times columnist and CNN global economic analyst
