Mandeep Patel
In this episode, we talk with Mandeep Patel, founder and CEO of ElecTrip, about building a city-to-city, door-to-door EV transportation service designed to maximize productivity for business travelers while reducing the carbon footprint of travel. Mandeep shares how he and co-founder Taylor Zhao bootstrapped the company, competed with ride-hailing giants for drivers, and navigated the challenges of putting the business on hold during COVID. We also dive into lessons from being a young founder, why entrepreneurship feels more like StarCraft than chess, what makes Houston’s startup scene unique, and how EVs and charging infrastructure can reshape the way people live and travel.
