Anjur Nagpal is not your typical Silicon Valley founder, where the pervasive Silicon Valley myth is something like: founder is passionate about solving a huge problem, raises millions driven by a powerful vision, and amidst much struggle finally changes the world. The story of Teachable is not like that.

In this episode of The Hustle & Flowchart podcast we sit down with the Founder of teachable Ankur Nagpal, after teaching courses on Udemy with his partner Conrad. They were making some money, but it appeared unwise to market courses to students that they didn’t have direct access to, an thus Teachable(formerly fedora) was born.

We talk about a range of topics mostly around getting your course started and Ankur shares some tips on what investors are looking for.
