AdolfDassler (Adidas)
Adolf "Adi" Dassler (3 November 1900 – 6 September
1978) was a German cobbler, inventor and entrepreneur
who founded the German sportswear company Adidas. He
was also the younger brother of Rudolf Dassler, founder
of Puma. Dassler was an innovator in athletic shoe design
and one of the early promoters who obtained
endorsements from athletes to drive sale of his products.
As a result of his concepts, Adi Dassler built the largest
manufacturer of sportswear and equipment. At the time of
his death, Adidas had 17 factories and annual sales of one
billion marks. Dassler was married to Käthe until his death
from heart failure in 1978. They had 5 children. In 1973,
their son Horst Dassler founded Arena, a producer of
swimming equipment. Käthe Dassler died on 31 December
1984.

Howdidhebecamesuccessful?
After starting out in his mother's wash
kitchen, Adi Dassler registered the
'Gebrüder Dassler Schuhfabrik' in 1924
and embarked on his mission to provide
athletes with the best possible equipment.
Gold medals in Amsterdam (1928, Lina
Radke) and Berlin were first rewards and
milestones – and only the start of our
story.

AdolfDassler (Adidas)
WhataretheFailuresheEncountered Before Becoming
Successful?Adolf Dassler was initially categorized as being a
‘Lesser Offender’ and the company was put under the supervision
of a trustee. This made it very difficult for Adolf to re-start his
sports shoe business. Then, through a process of appeal he was
able to show that he had never been an active supporter of the
party. He leaned heavily on testimony from respected residents of
Herzogenaurach, employees he had helped, and even a Jewish
friend who he had taken in and protected from the Nazis. His
degree of party affiliation was eventually reclassified to the
category of ‘Follower’ and he was able to resume control of the
company as an owner once again.
The stress of the war, and the years immediately afterwards
created irreparable division between Adolf and Rudolf Dassler.
They officially split up their company in 1948.
They divided the firm’s assets and, following this, became
business rivals. Rudolf formed his own sports shoe company
which eventually became known as Puma. The global
headquarters of both adidas and Puma are still based in the town
of Herzogenaurach.

WhataretheFailuresheEncountered Before BecomingSuccessful?
He also mentioned their biggest challenge was to create
awareness on the funders’ end since most people think that
investing in agriculture is risky with a low chance of profit.
On another note, access to finance has always been a major
problem for farmers in countries like Bangladesh, Cambodia and
Myanmar. No matter how much the NGOs are supporting or the
government is subsidising, access to finance still holds a huge gap
between demand and supply, he said.
“In the government’s aim to build Digital Bangladesh, agriculture
has not been given the proper focus, which could have addressed
the needs and potential of the massive sector. We don’t have a
storage facility and due to that, farmers have to sell their goods
instantly and incur losses every day,” Fahad added.

    MOST SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEURS AROUNDTHE WORLD (GERMANY) AdolfDassler (Adidas) Adolf "Adi" Dassler (3 November 1900 – 6 September 1978) was a German cobbler, inventor and entrepreneur who founded the German sportswear company Adidas. He was also the younger brother of Rudolf Dassler, founder of Puma. Dassler was an innovator in athletic shoe design and one of the early promoters who obtained endorsements from athletes to drive sale of his products. As a result of his concepts, Adi Dassler built the largest manufacturer of sportswear and equipment. At the time of his death, Adidas had 17 factories and annual sales of one billion marks. Dassler was married to Käthe until his death from heart failure in 1978. They had 5 children. In 1973, their son Horst Dassler founded Arena, a producer of swimming equipment. Käthe Dassler died on 31 December 1984.

After starting out in his mother's wash kitchen, Adi Dassler registered the 'Gebrüder Dassler Schuhfabrik' in 1924 and embarked on his mission to provide athletes with the best possible equipment. Gold medals in Amsterdam (1928, Lina Radke) and Berlin were first rewards and milestones – and only the start of our story.

    MOST SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEURS AROUNDTHE WORLD (GERMANY) AdolfDassler (Adidas) WhataretheFailuresheEncountered Before Becoming Successful?Adolf Dassler was initially categorized as being a ‘Lesser Offender’ and the company was put under the supervision of a trustee. This made it very difficult for Adolf to re-start his sports shoe business. Then, through a process of appeal he was able to show that he had never been an active supporter of the party. He leaned heavily on testimony from respected residents of Herzogenaurach, employees he had helped, and even a Jewish friend who he had taken in and protected from the Nazis. His degree of party affiliation was eventually reclassified to the category of ‘Follower’ and he was able to resume control of the company as an owner once again. The stress of the war, and the years immediately afterwards created irreparable division between Adolf and Rudolf Dassler. They officially split up their company in 1948. They divided the firm’s assets and, following this, became business rivals. Rudolf formed his own sports shoe company which eventually became known as Puma. The global headquarters of both adidas and Puma are still based in the town of Herzogenaurach.

    MOST SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEURS AROUNDTHE WORLD (BANGLADESH) FahadIfaz(ifarmer) WhataretheFailuresheEncountered Before BecomingSuccessful? He also mentioned their biggest challenge was to create awareness on the funders’ end since most people think that investing in agriculture is risky with a low chance of profit. On another note, access to finance has always been a major problem for farmers in countries like Bangladesh, Cambodia and Myanmar. No matter how much the NGOs are supporting or the government is subsidising, access to finance still holds a huge gap between demand and supply, he said. “In the government’s aim to build Digital Bangladesh, agriculture has not been given the proper focus, which could have addressed the needs and potential of the massive sector. We don’t have a storage facility and due to that, farmers have to sell their goods instantly and incur losses every day,” Fahad added.
