Paperback. What kind of person decides, as a child, that he is going to build a car company and then quietly spends the next 20 years making it real?MEETING RJ SCARINGE takes you inside the life and thinking of the engineer who founded Rivian and chose one of the hardest possible paths in modern business. Starting with nothing but mechanical skill and an idea, RJ Scaringe set out to build an electric vehicle company in an industry where even giants collapse. No inherited wealth. No shortcuts. No media spectacle. Just preparation, years of rejection, and an uncommon ability to stay focused when progress was invisible.This book traces his story from a childhood spent rebuilding engines in a neighbor's garage to the founding of Rivian in 2009, when starting a car company was widely considered irrational. You will see how his education became more than degrees. They became a strategy for earning credibility when he had no capital. You will follow the early years when raising money meant explaining why failure was the reasonable expectation and why he was willing to try anyway.Inside these pages, you will discover how Rivian was built from the inside out. How the first hires were made. Why the brand was shaped around real human experiences instead of marketing trends. What it took to launch vehicles, build factories, negotiate supply chains, survive near-collapse, and take a company public. The book goes beyond headlines to explain how modern electric vehicles are actually developed, how autonomy and software are reshaping transportation, and why manufacturing may be the next great frontier.This is also a personal story. It explores the cost of extreme focus, the strain on family life, the weight of responsibility that comes with leadership, and the reality behind sudden wealth and public valuation swings. Scaringe's rise to an estimated $3.4 billion net worth in 2021 and the market decline that followed are examined not as drama, but as part of what it means to build in a capital-intensive world where patience is often misunderstood.MEETING RJ SCARINGE is not a book about hype. It is about how real companies are built. It is about engineering, long-term thinking, calm decision-making, and creating something before the world is ready for it.Whether you are an entrepreneur, engineer, investor, student, or simply fascinated by the future of electric vehicles, clean energy, and modern manufacturing, this book offers rare insight into what it truly takes to build a company from scratch in one of the hardest industries on earth.If you want to understand the mindset behind Rivian, the realities of building an electric car company, and the lessons hidden behind one of the quietest figures in modern technology, this book will change how you see innovation.

MEETING RJ SCARINGE takes you inside the life and thinking of the engineer who founded Rivian and chose one of the hardest possible paths in modern business. Starting with nothing but mechanical skill and an idea, RJ Scaringe set out to build an electric vehicle company in an industry where even giants collapse. No inherited wealth. No shortcuts. No media spectacle. Just preparation, years of rejection, and an uncommon ability to stay focused when progress was invisible.
This book traces his story from a childhood spent rebuilding engines in a neighbor’s garage to the founding of Rivian in 2009, when starting a car company was widely considered irrational. You will see how his education became more than degrees. They became a strategy for earning credibility when he had no capital. You will follow the early years when raising money meant explaining why failure was the reasonable expectation and why he was willing to try anyway.
Inside these pages, you will discover how Rivian was built from the inside out. How the first hires were made. Why the brand was shaped around real human experiences instead of marketing trends. What it took to launch vehicles, build factories, negotiate supply chains, survive near-collapse, and take a company public. The book goes beyond headlines to explain how modern electric vehicles are actually developed, how autonomy and software are reshaping transportation, and why manufacturing may be the next great frontier.

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).

Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
