A Cheeky Pint With RJ Scaringe

Rivian Founder and CEO RJ Scaringe sat down with Stripe co-founder and President John Collison for a pint and a chat as part of Stripe’s new podcast and video series, “Cheeky Pint.”

Set in an Irish pub within the Stripe offices, John went back to the beginning with RJ. They discuss the complexity of starting a car company, and Rivian’s evolution from idea to startup to full-blown business, with hundreds of thousands of vehicles on the road today.



John and RJ also cover Rivian’s path to profitability, autonomy, the forthcoming R2, and the tech that sets Rivian apart from other automakers.
