In an interview he gave to Forbes ο Διευθύνων Σύμβουλος και συνιδρυτής του Snapchat κ. Evan Spiegel εξήγησε γιατί επέλεξε να απορρίψει τα 3 δισmillions dollars offered by Facebook to buy the service.
In accordance with Forbes, Spiegel, believes that there are very few people in the world who can start a business like Snapchat. "I don't think selling the company for a short-term profit was very interesting," Spiegel said.
When Mark Zuckerberg, CEO and founder of Facebook, tried to persuade Spiegel to accept the deal, he reportedly told him at a meeting that Facebook was planning to release a similar app in a few days. "It was basically like telling him we'd make you together," said Evan Spiegel.
