Who will be the most successful entrepreneur of the 2020s and why? by Hector Quintanilla

Elon Musk
Elon Musk | Biography & Facts | Britannica

1- SpaceX
When Elon Musk started SpaceX, the venture was seen as a fantasy and something that most didn’t take seriously.
Elon and the SpaceX Team have proven them wrong.
Elon has a mission to make Mars habitable in case the earth is no longer a viable option.   

2- Tesla
Electric vehicles have been around for a few decades now, but none have really caught on … until Elon got involved.
Tesla has solved problems like slow charging, short-range, slow speed, and slow acceleration, plus has made EVs affordable.
Now all the car industry is trying to catch up with Elon and the Tesla Team. Personally, I don’t think they have the corporate culture and innovative thinking to do so.
Tesla will continue to revolutionize the car industry.

3- Tesla Batteries
Founded in 2006, Elon is seeking to make renewable energy something that every home can afford plus revolutionize the battery efficiency of the Tesla cars.
SolarCity (another of Elon’s ventures) designs and installs clean energy systems in residential and commercial settings.
Elon’s goal is that by using SolarCity’s solar energy and Tesla batteries, households can become less dependent on the electric grid, power their Tesla vehicle, and reduce their footprint on the environment.
With global warming in the front of the minds of governments and people worldwide, I expect that Elon will continue to revolutionize this industry.

4- The Hyperloop
Passengers will be able to enter a 2-meter wide pod to be zipped through a long tube. The entire thing is expected to run on renewable electric energy.
The Hyperloop is being tested and has proven to be successful. We will see Elon’s creation again revolutionize transportation by the end of this decade.
Elon with the Boring Company is also working on neuroscience, education, AI, self-driving cars, traffic problems.
