We All use Whats App but do you know how it came into existence.

With Facebook acquiring WhatsApp, its co-founders - Jan Koum and Brian Acton - have become billionaires and stars of technology world.

It has been an incredible journey for Jan Koum who lived on food stamps as a teenager.

Jan Koum, co-founder of WhatsApp was born in a small village near Kiev in Ukraine. He led a life full of hardships as his family struggled hard to meet ends meet. His house did not even

have electricity, says Forbes. he & his mother migrated to Mountain View and managed to get a two-bedroom apartment with the help of government support .Jan Koum used to do menial

jobs like cleaning and mopping at a grocery store while his mother took up a baby sitting job. Life took a tragic turn when his mother was diagnosed with cancer.They lived on allowances

from the government, according to Forbes.But life’s adversities only made Jan Koum stronger and resilient. By 18, he learnt computer networking all by himself with the help of manuals from

a used book store, says Forbes.Finally, he enrolled at San Jose State University worked at Ernst & Young as a security tester. Little did he realize that this was the beginning of an illustrious

career. Meeting Brian Acton was a turning point in his life. Koum later got a job at Yahoo as an infrastructure engineer. Soon he dropped out of college. However, Koum did not stay on the

job for long. In September 2007, Koum and Acton bid farewell to Yahoo and decided to unwind and travel around.As savings started getting over, the duo started thinking about new start-up

ideas.Incidentally, in 2009, the seeds of this amazing innovation were sown.Koum bought an iPhone and figured out that apps would be the next big thing. He thought creating a hassle-free

and instant messaging service would work wonders across the globe if it had mobile users as base.The idea was to get people across the world to network on a single platform effortlessly.It

took him months of back-breaking work and testing to get the code in place.There were several trying times when things would not fall in place.

Koum had even thought of giving up the idea but Brian Acton convinced him to try it for a few months. Initially,the messaging service was tried on phones of his Russian friends. The

response was encouraging. Koum released WhatsApp 2.0 with a messaging component and active users went up to 250,000. By 2011, WhatsApp found a place among the top 20 apps in the

US app store, states Forbes.

Two years later in 2013, WhatsApp’s user base had zoomed to 200 million active users.

Today WhatsApp has more than 450 million active users, and reached that number faster than any other company in history, points out Venture Capitalist Jim Goetz in a blog on Sequoia

Capital website which has invested in the company.

The most remarkable aspect of the company is that, “It doesn’t even employ a marketer or PR person. Yet like the world’s greatest brands, it’s created a strong emotional connection with

consumers.

“WhatsApp is on a path to connect 1 billion people. The services that reach that milestone are all incredibly valuable,” Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a statement.The most

interesting part of their journey is that both Jan Koum and Brian Acton applied for a job in Facebook and were rejected in 2009.

Expressing disappointment over the rejection, Brian Acton had then tweeted, “Facebook turned me down. It was a great opportunity to connect with some fantastic people. Looking forward to

life's next adventure.” It has indeed one of the biggest adventures in the tech world and a befitting reply to Facebook. Life has come a full circle for this duo with this billion dollar

acquisition.
