• Deliveroo CEO Will Shu went from grinding 100-hour weeks on Wall Street to creating a solution to London’s lack of late-night food delivery. More than a decade later, he’s walking away with nearly $250 million after turning his midnight cravings into a $4 billion DoorDash acquisition. From biking orders himself to battling a rocky IPO, Shu’s all-in approach has helped fuel his entrepreneurial mission.

For Will Shu, food delivery is personal.
