<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[For the past decade, software added dashboards, tools, and layers of complexity. The next generation of AI companies will win by doing the opposite — eliminating toil, removing friction, and making entire categories of manual work disappear. In this fireside chat, Ayush Sharma (CEO + Founder of Warp) and Warp\'s Series A lead and renowned investor, Ashton Kutcher (General Partner at Sound Ventures), explore why subtraction — not expansion — is the defining opportunity in AI, and how founders can build companies that don’t just improve workflows, but erase them entirely.

This was filmed at our annual flagship Global Conference in Silicon Valley. Check out upcoming events near you and get involved with your local chapter at https://www.startupgrind.com.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Seed funding can feel opaque—especially for first-time founders. In this session, Puneet Agarwal (Managing Partner at True Ventures), Frédérique Dame (General Partner at GV), and Anish Acharya (General Partner at a16z) break down what gets funded today, what no longer works, and how seed investors think about AI-driven startups in a crowded market. The discussion will focus on how investors cut through pitch decks, surface-level traction, and buzzwords so that founders can learn how seed decisions are made, why “looking good on paper” is not enough, and what truly matters in an era where AI is saturating nearly every category.

This was filmed at our annual flagship Global Conference in Silicon Valley. Check out upcoming events near you and get involved with your local chapter at https://www.startupgrind.com.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[In this session, Rahul Vohra reflects on two exits separated by more than a decade: selling Rapportive to LinkedIn in 2012, and Superhuman to Grammarly in 2025. Rather than focusing on deal headlines or valuation alone, the conversation digs into how founders decide whether to sell at all, how to evaluate strategic fit when incentives aren’t perfectly aligned, and how to protect product quality and culture through the acquisition process. Moderated by AngelList CEO Avlok Kohli, Rahul shares what changed in his thinking between the first exit and the second, and how consolidation in the AI era is changing the calculus for founders who often have to choose between staying independent or joining a larger ecosystem.

Drawing from Linear’s rapid growth and hands-on adoption of AI to supercharge engineering and product workflows, they’ll discuss what genuinely changes when agents become part of the team—how roles evolve, where judgment still matters most, and why focus, craft, and discipline remain essential even as tools get more powerful.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[AI’s biggest headlines focus on training models — but the real economic engine of AI is inference, where models are deployed, scaled, and monetized. After building Lambda into a billion-dollar infrastructure company, VP of Revenue + Founding Team Member Robert Brooks and Mitesh Agrawal, CEO of Positron AI, witnessed the industry’s shift firsthand: from chasing raw compute to optimizing performance-per-dollar at scale. In this session, they unpack why inference will define the next decade of AI, how to recognize structural inflection points early, and what separates enduring infrastructure companies from hype-driven cycles.

In this fireside, Mercor co-founder Adarsh Hiremath joins Felicis’ Managing Partner Sundeep Peechu to explore why talent, evaluation, and trust are becoming core infrastructure layers in the AI stack — and how building at the intersection of labor markets and machine intelligence creates entirely new economic models. A conversation about what most founders underestimate: the human systems powering autonomous software.

Harvey\'s President + Co-founder, Gabe Pereyra, and GV\'s General Partner, Sangeen Zeb, dive into how today’s most durable AI companies are built, going deep on painful, high‑value workflows, establishing real product and data moats, and resisting the pull toward “yet another AI assistant.” They’ll explore the journey from early product‑market fit to global scale, sharing how founders evolve go‑to‑market and organizational design while maintaining trust, reliability, and quality—and how a strong founder‑investor partnership can be a true force multiplier along the way.

In this fireside chat, Michel Tricot, CEO + Co-founder of Airbyte, and Chetan Puttagunta, General Partner at Benchmark, explore what separates the real thing from the rebrand: why the best investors fund leadership, not just ideas, and how that conviction gave Airbyte the room to pivot five years of infrastructure knowledge toward the agent era. They\'ll also unpack why culture and operating model matter more than product features, and why aligning your business model with token consumption is what will separate the winners from everyone else.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Success is often presented as highlight reels but the reality is built in the moments no one sees.

Ivan Poupyrev (CEO + Founder of Archetype AI) can explore what separates visionary leaders from reckless ones and the skills required to operate under constant uncertainty with Ethan Batraski (Partner at Venrock). He’ll share how technical founders make high-conviction decisions, learn quickly from failure, and establish direction when they’re creating a space that doesn’t yet exist.

In this tactical session, Panelists share what they would architect differently, where founders overspend too early, when platform thinking accelerates growth (and when it becomes a drag), and what fundamentally changes at enterprise scale. Expect concrete lessons on the early decisions that compound, the costly mistakes that are hard to unwind, and how to preserve speed while building for durability.

Featuring Travis Addair, Sr Engineering Director (AI) / Co-founder + CTO at Rubrik / Predibase; David Zhu, CEO + Co-founder of Reevo; and Niko Ciminelli, Principal at Khosla Ventures.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Building a startup is often portrayed as big ideas, fundraising wins, and rapid growth. But most of the real work happens in the unglamorous parts no one talks about—leaving many founders unprepared until they’re already deep in it. In this panel, founders share what actually goes into building a company behind the scenes—from early decisions to the operational challenges that come with growing something from scratch. The conversation will focus on how founders spend their time, how priorities shift as companies evolve, and what it takes to keep a company moving forward behind the scenes. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of what it really takes to build a company, beyond the headlines.

Featuring Alex Wright-gladstein, CEO + Founder of Sphere; Jill Marguette, Head Of Marketing at Fidelity Private Shares; Cecilia Tse, CEO + Co-founder of Hey Freya; and Matt Derda, Product Marketing Director at Fidelity Private Shares.

Drawing from personal experience as an angel investor and executive at various tech companies, Adam warns against the common myth that a great product alone guarantees success, highlighting that many well-designed products fail due to misaligned business models. Using his current venture, Daffy, as a case study, he explains how adopting a membership-based model for donor-advised funds allows for greater alignment between mission, product, and market, ultimately leading to higher customer engagement and retention. Adam concludes by urging founders to take ownership of their business model decisions, as these choices shape the future of their companies.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Stacy Brown-Philpot, a seasoned leader and founder of Cherryrock Capital, discusses her experiences transitioning from a startup leader to a venture capitalist. She explains the difference between \"zero to one\" leaders, who focus on initial idea development, and \"one to 100\" leaders, who scale businesses. Stacy emphasizes the importance of recognizing when to shift leadership roles and the necessity of establishing scalable product-market fit rather than just early product-market fit. She shares insights on building effective boards, advocating for transparency and the value of asking good questions. Additionally, she highlights her investment focus on underrepresented entrepreneurs in software, digital health, and AI, while reflecting on her journey and the challenges of raising capital in a tough market. Finally, she recommends the book \"Let Them Go\" by Mel Gibbons, which addresses personal empowerment and letting go of frustrations.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Niko Bonatsos is a managing director at the venture firm General Catalyst, partnering with founders from seed to growth stage and beyond to build companies that withstand the test of time. Niko focuses his investment strategy on finding first-time technology founders with strong product instincts, a robust appetite for learning, and a desire to create innovations with the potential to benefit millions. Niko is currently obsessed with partnering with young technical founders who are building products for themselves. 

Leigh Marie Braswell is a principal at Founders Fund. Before joining Founders Fund, she was an early engineer & the first product manager at Scale AI, where she originally built & later led product development for the LiDAR/3D annotation products, used by many autonomous vehicles, robots, and AR/VR companies as a core step in their machine learning lifecycles. Leigh Marie is originally from Alabama, graduated from MIT, and loves to play poker, run long distances, and scuba dive.

Brett manages the investment team and leads Initialized’s dev tools and crypto deals. Prior to joining Initialized, he cofounded the blog platforms Posthaven and Posterous (acquired by Twitter) and later wrote software for Y Combinator, building its essential internal software systems. He was also a founder of the social news platform Slinkset, which was funded by YC in 2008, and DrawHere, a browser drawing startup acquired by DeviantArt in 2006. He is fond of pinball.

<description ><![CDATA[Niko Bonatsos is a managing director at the venture firm General Catalyst, partnering with founders from seed to growth stage and beyond to build companies that withstand the test of time. Niko focuses his investment strategy on finding first-time technology founders with strong product instincts, a robust appetite for learning, and a desire to create innovations with the potential to benefit millions. Niko is currently obsessed with partnering with young technical founders who are building products for themselves. 

Leigh Marie Braswell is a principal at Founders Fund. Before joining Founders Fund, she was an early engineer & the first product manager at Scale AI, where she originally built & later led product development for the LiDAR/3D annotation products, used by many autonomous vehicles, robots, and AR/VR companies as a core step in their machine learning lifecycles. Leigh Marie is originally from Alabama, graduated from MIT, and loves to play poker, run long distances, and scuba dive.

Brett manages the investment team and leads Initialized’s dev tools and crypto deals. Prior to joining Initialized, he cofounded the blog platforms Posthaven and Posterous (acquired by Twitter) and later wrote software for Y Combinator, building its essential internal software systems. He was also a founder of the social news platform Slinkset, which was funded by YC in 2008, and DrawHere, a browser drawing startup acquired by DeviantArt in 2006. He is fond of pinball.

In this session, Carrie Shaw, CMO at Copper, will outline why it’s a losing game to rely on outdated and ineffective email “strategies” like gimmicks, guilt, favors, FOMO, and poor personalization. Instead, she will dive into the only effective combination: timing and pain. That – and being able to write. With the dominance of email as a marketing and sales channel showing no signs of stopping, Carrie will share specific examples on how to make your prospects’ inboxes brighter and your pipeline stronger.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[For the past 10 to 20 years, companies have witnessed a dive in engagement levels in the workforce, impacting results and increasing costs. 

Since Millennials stormed the workplace, companies have tried to use gamification as a way to engage them and get better results. However, Gartner\'s famed prediction that most gamification solutions would fail has, to the industry\'s dismay, mostly been accurate.

Why is that? Mainly due to two reasons: cookie-cutter design and lack of follow-through.

The projects that achieve mid-to-long-term success are bespoke solutions co-created with the users and that are constantly evolving - like World of Warcraft, which has stayed at the top of the gaming industry since 2004 by constantly reinventing itself and growing along with the players.

How can we do that in the gamification domain in a scalable way? With AI.

By leveraging existing know-how in game design and gamification in the employee engagement domain, as well as employee development benchmarks, we can provide companies with AI-powered Game Masters that can not only deliver immediate engagement mechanics but also learn, autonomously, when and how to adapt to each employee\'s path and emotional drivers, to maximize growth.

In a time where engagement is at a premium and working paradigms are shifting in drastic ways, gamification needs to grow up and deliver on its promise.

We\'ll talk about how it can and is already beginning to do that, and the role AI can and needs to play in that change.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Welcome to Startup Grind\'s Founder Series, where our VP of Sales + Startups Alex Gordon-Furse educates our global community on highly relevant early-stage topics through interviews with founders of top startups from our Startup Program.

In this episode, Alex interviews Jessica Mendoza, Founder and CEO of Monadd, which enables individuals to update their address across their service providers when they move, all in under 5 minutes. Prior to Monadd, Jessica was Founder at Subjectiv and also worked at Associated Press and Kantar Media. She has also been very active in a number of professional development communities, supporting others to learn and develop their careers.

The subject of this interview is \'How We Can Better Support Female Founders\'. Expect to learn from Jessica\'s experiences as a community-builder, employee and founder. You will hear her perspective on the most challenging periods of her time as a female founder, and how they could have been different. Jessica also reflects on what others in the startup ecosystem can learn from the most supportive people and organisations she has come across during her career, as well as how men can become better allies to female founders.

We found the conversation very interesting and we hope you do too!

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[The pandemic has created unique struggles and long-term impacts on working moms and their future careers. Allison and Alda will discuss important stats, what tech innovation, companies, founders, and paths will pop up in 2021 to help ease the burden of working families, and transition that workforce back into stable, forward-moving careers.

After having her first child in 2015, founder Allison Robinson identified how universally challenging it can be for American mothers to juggle the demands of motherhood with a full-time career. She knew there had to be a better way to help women stay engaged in the workforce on their own terms. Since launching in 2016, The Mom Project has grown its talent community to over 175K women and has supported over 2000 companies across the United States.

Alda brings over a decade of investing and legal experience to Initialized Capital. Prior to Initialized, she was a managing partner at 137 Ventures where she led investments in Planet Labs, Wish, Coupang, CourseHero, and Work Market. Additionally, she made personal early-stage investments in companies such as Maven, Common Networks, Legalzoom, SpaceX, and Osaro. Previously she was COO at Airtime, General Counsel at Founders Fund, Assistant General Counsel at Peter Thiel’s Clarium Capital Management, and practiced as a litigator for IP disputes at WSGR. She graduated from Stanford with BAs in economics and political science, and a JD from UCLA.

Aviad and Dan will take you through the seasons of the product journey, from proving your product-market fit to the building, evolving, and scaling it to a broad audience.

Aviad Pinkovezky is the Head of Product at Hippo Insurance, where he joined the company in 2016 as employee number one. Prior to Hippo, Aviad served as Senior Product Manager at LinkedIn, spearheading the growth of its Company Page ecosystem by nearly 300%.

Dan is an associate finance editor at Business Insider, based in New York. He covers financial technology and market structure.

Whether it\'s a startup looking to disrupt the way Wall Street trades or a big bank hoping to keep pace with the evolving markets, Dan focuses on how financial firms both big and small look to leverage interesting, innovative technology. His coverage includes artificial intelligence and machine learning, the public cloud, alternative data, and the struggles firms sometimes face when trying to use the often complex technology.

To date, they have raised $3.3M from investors like HYPE Capital, Phoenix Capital & UCLA Ventures.

The subject of this interview is \'The Art of the Pivot\'. Expect to learn about how FanFood has navigated the past year as a startup depends on the existence of large in-person sporting events. Through this story, we aimed to educate other founders in the SG community about what a pivot looks like in practice, including how and when to consider a pivot and how to manage the process end-to-end, both internally and externally.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Welcome to Startup Grind\'s Founder Series, where our VP of Sales + Startups Alex Gordon-Furse educates our global community on highly relevant early-stage topics through interviews with founders of top startups from our Startup Program.

In this episode, Alex interviews Albert Santalo, founder and CEO of 8base, a next-generation backend-as-a-service for developers to build and run SaaS and market-facing applications using serverless and GraphQL. 8base is great for anything from personal projects or hackathons to building consumer-grade software applications for Global-2000 companies.

The subject of this interview is \'What raising $130M taught me about bootstrapping\'. Expect to learn about how to bootstrap, how and when to raise different types of external capital, the pros and cons of taking VC funding and hear Albert\'s message to first-time founders.

0:00 Start
0:10 Quick intro from Alex Gordon-Furse, VP of Sales & Startups at Startup Grind HQ
2:23 Meet Albert Santalo, founder and CEO of 8base
3:59 Now CareCloud was founded in 2009. Why did you start it?
6:10 What was it like finding your product & customers in the first couple of years?
8:20 How do you balance product development versus sales?
9:41 By year 3 you had already raised almost $30M. How were you feeling by this point?
11:05 What is your recommendation for people selling their product?
12:49 Would you argue that the better side to raising venture capital pulls you forward?
14:47 How do you pick investors/ partners? Finding a good fit?
16:42 Talk me through your journey from Series A in 2011 to late 2016, by which time you had raised Series C.
20:22 Did you compartmentalize your VCs depending on their focus?
21:57 Talk more about how active the VCs were operationally in helping you
23:20 What would you recommend to people who are anxious about relationships with investors?
25:29 How would you advise people who are running a bootstrap company?
26:52 Firstly, where does the name 8base come from?
28:03 What is the problem 8base is solving and why is now the best time for 8base to be solving it?
30:45 Who are your main competitors and why are you better?
34:15 Contrast your experience with CareCloud to 8base
36:55 What are the main benefits of having taken a different approach here?
40:35 You recently went through Techstars Austin. Would you say early-stage accelerators are a good middle ground for those who starting out?
41:55 Are there any specific tips you’d give them about creative ways to at least minimize the dilution of their equity to outside investors if they are raising capital?
44:18 If you could give one message to the first-time founders out there watching this, what would it be?

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Welcome to Startup Grind\'s Founder Series, where our VP of Sales + Startups Alex Gordon-Furse educates our global community on highly relevant early-stage topics through interviews with founders of top startups from our Startup Program.

In this episode, Alex interviews Sce Pike, founder and CEO of IOTAS, a Portland, Oregon-based developer of a premier smart home technology platform that delivers a fully-connected, smart home experience for residents and property managers that integrates IoT technology directly into multifamily units. IOTAS is now in over 45 different markets in US and Canada and is managing over 100,000 IoT devices in multiple properties to mitigate risk and damage, reduce labor costs, and attract and retain residents with Smart Home features.

The subject of this interview is \'The Pros and Cons of Raising Money from CVCs\'. Expect to learn a lot from Sce\'s extensive experience raising money from, selling to and working with corporates, including how to build & manage relationships with them and why CVCs might actually be savvier investors with better connections than traditional VCs.

0:00 Start
0:10 Quick intro from Alex Gordon-Furse, VP of Sales & Startups at Startup Grind HQ
0:55 Meet Sce Pike, founder and CEO of IOTAS
2:32 What is the main problem you are solving?
4:13 Why is now the best time for IOTAS to be solving it?
6:18 Who are your main competitors and why are you better?
8:27 At what point was it that you realised the important thing was to focus on building great software to empower this market?
12:27 As a second-time founder (Citizen, Inc), were you able to mainly use personal funds before you raised your pre-seed/Angel round?
13:56 Citizen has since been acquired by Ernst & Young, but what stage was it at when you left?
14:47 You raised an initial SAFE round in 2015 - who was involved in that and how did you find them?
17:07 What was your story for the seed round in mid-2017? 
20:20 Had you actively sought out discussions with CVCs or was this more of a reactive move? 
23:24 Recommendation for people who don\'t have the right platform available to get in touch with the corporates they want to work with
28:38 How was the process of closing the Series A round different from previous rounds?
31:00 How have you worked with your investors?
33:32 What are challenges you\'ve had with investors?
35:51 What were signals or red flags when working with or selecting CVCs?
38:52 What tips do you have that are industry-agnostic to help others get the most out of their CVC relationships?
40:23 How would it look if you brought out another corporate? How would you think about that decision and work with the other CVCs to pull that round together?
42:20 Have you engaged with other founders who have had different experiences?
45:14 If there were one single thing you’d like our listeners to take from today’s story, what would it be?

In this episode, Alex interviews Eric Crane, co-founder and COO of Flatfile, whose mission is to remove barriers between humans and their data. Hundreds of enterprises use Flatfile products to aggregate, import, and normalize data from disparate and variant sources. Previously, Eric was the first product lead at Envoy, whose workplace products help thousands of companies create delightful and welcoming office experiences.

The subject of this interview is \'Designing a fundraise: lessons from Flatfile\'s first two investment rounds\'. Expect to learn how Eric and his co-founder David Boskovic designed a fundraising strategy that enabled them to raise a $7.6M seed round in less than a month.

14:29 Different funding routes Flatfile could have gone down.
15:27 Where\'s the best place to start with fundraising?
18:45 Would you say pitches are organic or more practiced?
19:28 A lot of times startups get too fixated on the pitch deck. Make it good. But don\'t be too focused on it
20:08 How did you go about choosing investors?
21:00 What you should look for in different investors
24:33 How did you allocate pre-seed money and what length of runway did you give yourself?

30:13 Do you feel like the initial feedback you received from earlier investors helped you prepare?
31:23 The best preparation for pitching: have a solid business

33:22 What mechanisms did you use to decide on the $7.6M number at that stage?

38:24 What is the planning for your A-raise looking like? How do you think your experience will inform your strategy?

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Welcome to Startup Grind\'s Founder Series, where our VP of Sales + Startups Alex Gordon-Furse educates our global community on highly relevant early-stage topics through interviews with founders of top startups from our Startup Program.

In this episode, Alex interviews Mary Spio, a former Deep Space Engineer with multiple patents. Mary is currently Founder & CEO of CEEK VR, an award-winning streaming service for virtual events and experiences featuring the biggest names in entertainment, like Bon Jovi, U2, Lady Gaga, and more.

The subject of this interview is \'Alternatives to VC: Funding organic growth through mega-partnerships\'. Expect to learn how Mary used revenue from partnerships with the likes of Universal Music, Google, and Apple to grow, rather than primarily investor funds.

7:05 Who are your main competitors and why are you better?
10:59 How did you fund CEEK between 2016 and 2019 when you raised capital?
13:50 Raising capital for female founders is a huge challenge. What was the story for you?
16:42 How did you choose your investors?
18:49 Will you raise more venture funds in the future & what will your decision-making process look like for that decision?
21:14 Is CEEK different because its primary distribution strategy is through these big brand partnerships as B2B2C?
23:54 What was your process for finding & getting meetings with big brands when you run such an early-stage startup?

32:54 How does the sales cycle look for one of these partnerships?

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Self-awareness in a crisis sounds like a luxury. Like Prada in a pandemic. But self-awareness – and the active version, self-coherence – are critical to surviving and even thriving in crisis states like the one we’re in now and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. 

This workshop will teach you how to make decisions and consistently act in ways that are in integrity with who you most deeply are – even when the world is falling apart.

Yancey Strickler is the Cofounder and former CEO of Kickstarter, the author of “This Could Be Our Future: A Manifesto for a More Generous World,” and the creator of Bentoism.

About the session:
A Fireside chat with Steve Blank, Author of The Four Steps to Epiphany, who talks about How to Keep Your Job as Your Company Grows. Interviewed by JD Schramm, Lecturer at Stanford University.

About the speakers:
Entrepreneur-turned-educator, Steve Blank is the Father of Modern Entrepreneurship. Credited with launching the Lean Startup movement, he’s changed how startups are built; how entrepreneurship is taught; how science is commercialized, and how companies and the government innovate.

Steve is the author of The Four Steps to the Epiphany, The Startup Owner’s Manual - and his May 2013 Harvard Business Review cover story defined the Lean Startup movement. 

He teaches at Stanford, Columbia, Berkeley and NYU; and created the National Science Foundation Innovation Corps -- now the standard for science commercialization in the U.S. His Hacking for Defense class at Stanford is revolutionizing how the U.S. defense and intelligence community can deploy innovation with speed and urgency, and its sister class, Hacking for Diplomacy, is doing the same for foreign affairs challenges managed by the U.S. State Department.

JD Schramm loves working with entrepreneurs and executives to communicate more effectively. A TED speaker and coach he\'s worked with a wide range of individuals and teams on their pitches. Since 2007 he\'s been doing this at Stanford\'s Graduate School of Business. In 2018 he also accepted a faculty appointment with Columbia where he\'s leading their new effort to establish a West Coast presence.

About the session:
A Fireside chat with Steve Blank, Author of The Four Steps to Epiphany, who talks about How to Keep Your Job as Your Company Grows. Interviewed by JD Schramm, Lecturer at Stanford University.

About the speakers:
Entrepreneur-turned-educator, Steve Blank is the Father of Modern Entrepreneurship. Credited with launching the Lean Startup movement, he’s changed how startups are built; how entrepreneurship is taught; how science is commercialized, and how companies and the government innovate.

Steve is the author of The Four Steps to the Epiphany, The Startup Owner’s Manual - and his May 2013 Harvard Business Review cover story defined the Lean Startup movement. 

He teaches at Stanford, Columbia, Berkeley and NYU; and created the National Science Foundation Innovation Corps -- now the standard for science commercialization in the U.S. His Hacking for Defense class at Stanford is revolutionizing how the U.S. defense and intelligence community can deploy innovation with speed and urgency, and its sister class, Hacking for Diplomacy, is doing the same for foreign affairs challenges managed by the U.S. State Department.

JD Schramm loves working with entrepreneurs and executives to communicate more effectively. A TED speaker and coach he\'s worked with a wide range of individuals and teams on their pitches. Since 2007 he\'s been doing this at Stanford\'s Graduate School of Business. In 2018 he also accepted a faculty appointment with Columbia where he\'s leading their new effort to establish a West Coast presence.

The company grew to become the world’s largest independent guidebook publisher and today has close to 150 million books in print in English as well as digital versions and a busy website. Despite the completion of the sale of the company in 2011 Tony still contributes to their publications, most recently Epic Drives and the new edition of The Cities Book. 

The Planet Wheeler Foundation, with more than 50 health and education projects in the developing world, the Wheeler Centre for Books, Writing & Ideas in Melbourne, Australia, the recent launch of the Wheeler Institute of Business & Development at the London Business School and his position on the board of the California-based archaeological organization Global Heritage Fund also keep him busy. Recent travels have included visits to the rising-sea-level-threatened Pacific nation of Kiribati, Reactor 4 at Chernobyl 30 years after its meltdown and a reprise of his Hippie Trail adventures along the Silk Road, now part of China’s major One Belt One Road development.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Dame Stephanie Shirley (84) arrived in Britain in 1939 as an unaccompanied child refugee from Nazi Europe. She took her maths degree at evening classes.

She is now the most successful tech entrepreneur you never heard of. She founded a pioneering software house back in 1962 as a company of women, a company for women. Its eventual flotation led to 70 of her 8,500 staff becoming millionaires, and the company was co-owned by the staff with a value of around $3bn when it was acquired in 2007.

Her entrepreneurial zeal and zest also led to four sustainable notforprofits: The Oxford Internet Institute (which focuses on the internet’s social, economic, legal and ethical aspects) and three in the field of autism (her late son’s disorder): Autism at Kingwood (support services), Prior’s Court Foundation (education) and Autistica (medial research).

This ardent venture philanthropy has involved social investments totally £68m to 100 projects, many of which she also initiated.

Her TED Talk has already been viewed two million times and filming starts on her memoir Let IT Go next year when she will also celebrate her diamond (60 years) wedding with her physicist husband.]]></itunes:summary>

As a startup founder, you need to prove to these VCs that your product is better than anybody else\'s. As you grow, your questions change; Do I have all the people that I need for growth? If not, recruit the right people. But if you aren\'t going to continue innovating, you won\'t continue being the leader. You can\'t stay still.

Je Bercovici, San Francisco Bureau Chief, Inc.

20 years ago, the web used to be a place for small groups to get together, to communicate - and some of that really shows through in Slack. People talk to each other in different ways, but baked into the software is transparency - a open by default. Slack is \"public for later\", everyone can dip into the channel when it\'s relevant to their job. Learning that we weren\'t the best at the MVP (minimum viable product) in the gaming industry taught us both what we were good at creating, and what we weren\'t.

Silicon Valley; the place where anyone can be anything, anyone can make a difference, anyone can succeed, anyone can be exactly who they want to be, that is, if you\'re a man.

Rebecca joined the Maveron team in 2011, back when she was earning her MBA at Stanford, studying leadership and entrepreneurship. A partner in our San Francisco office, she joined full-time when she graduated the following year. In 2015, Forbes named Rebecca to its annual list of top “30 under 30” in venture capital, and Craig Newmark named Rebecca one of “5 Women Investors You Need to Know.”
 
In her role at Maveron, Rebecca identifies emerging consumer-focused entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley, Southern California, and her hometown of New York City. She also plays a leading role in our seed program, where we partner with emerging consumer companies at their earliest stages. She’s a Board Observer at Allbirds, August, Common, Darby Smart, Dolls Kill, Eargo, Earnest and General Assembly.
 
In a prior life, Rebecca was a journalist—for the Economist in London and as special projects editor at Narrative, an online literary platform devoted to bringing great literature into the digital age. At Narrative, in her addition to her editorial responsibilities, she was in charge of driving revenue and scaling the user base. Now she brings her skills and passion for understanding how stories come together to looking at the potential of breakout consumer brands.

GLOBAL CONFERENCE: https://www.startupgrind.com/conference/

Laura Weidman Powers is the co-founder and CEO of Code2040, a nonprofit organization that creates pathways to educational, professional, and entrepreneurial success in technology for underrepresented minorities with a specific focus on Blacks and Latinxs. Code2040 aims to close the achievement, skills, and wealth gaps in the United States. Our goal is to ensure that by the year 2040 - the start of the decade when the US will be majority people of color - we are proportionally represented in America\'s innovation economy as technologists, investors, thought leaders, and entrepreneurs.

In summer 2016, Laura joined the Obama Administration for a six month term as a senior advisor to U.S. Chief Technology Officer Megan Smith. At the White House, Laura focused on issues of diversity and inclusion related to ensuring hiring practices, entrepreneurial ecosystems, and the tech products and platforms of the future work for all Americans, particularly those from historically marginalized backgrounds.

Most recently before co-founding Code2040, Laura served as head of product at a consumer web startup. Prior to that, she co-founded two organizations in the education space, one nonprofit arts education organization in West Philadelphia that is currently celebrating its 12th year, and one for-profit tutoring company that gave rise to a book.

Laura is a 2016-2017 New America California Fellow. In 2016, Ebony included her on their Power 100 list. In 2015, Fortune named her one of 10 Female Executives on the Rise and San Francisco Magazine saluted her as one of 37 Soldiers of Social Change. From 2014-2016 Laura sat on the National Advisory Council on Innovation and Entrepreneurship (NACIE). The Root named her one of the 100 Most Influential African-Americans in 2013 and 2016 and Goldman Sachs named her one of the 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs of 2013. She was a 2013 Echoing Green Fellow and a 2013 Stanford Social Innovation Fellow. Her work has been covered by The New York Times, Forbes, NBC, Bloomberg, Fast Company, Inc. NPR, and others.

Laura has a BA cum laude from Harvard College and a JD and an MBA from Stanford University. Laura and Code2040 are based in San Francisco. You can find her quick thoughts on Twitter (@laurawp) and her longer thoughts on Medium (@laurawp).

Megan Rose Dickey is a reporter at TechCrunch focused on diversity, inclusion and social justice.

Prior to Serious Business, he was the Sr. Director for Business Development at Gaia Interactive, an online hangout and virtual world for teens.

Vinod grew up dreaming of being an entrepreneur, despite growing up in an Indian Army household with no business or technology connections. Since the age of 16, when he first heard about Intel starting up, he dreamt of starting his own technology company. Upon graduating with a bachelor’s in electrical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, Vinod failed, at age 20, to start a soy milk company to service the many people in India who did not have refrigerators. He came instead to the U.S. and got his master’s in biomedical engineering at Carnegie-Mellon University. His start-up dreams attracted him to Silicon Valley, where he got an MBA at Stanford University in 1980. Upon graduation he was one of the three founders of Daisy Systems, which was the first significant computer-aided design system for electrical engineers. The company went on to achieve significant revenue, profits, and an IPO, but Khosla, driven by the frustration of having to design the computer hardware on which the Daisy software needed to be built, started the standards-based Sun Microsystems in 1982 to build workstations for software developers. At Sun he pioneered “open systems” and RISC processors. Sun was funded by longtime friend and board member John Doerr of Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. In 1986 Vinod switched sides and joined Kleiner Perkins, where he was and continues to be a general partner of KPCB funds through KP X. Through the years there, with other partners, he took on Intel’s monopoly with Nexgen/AMD (the only microprocessor to have significant success against Intel, sold to AMD for 28 percent of AMD), incubated the idea and business plan for Juniper to take on Cisco’s dominance of the router market, formulated the very early advertising-based search strategy for Excite, and transformed the moribund telecommunications business and its archaic SONET implementations with Cerent (sold to Cisco for $7B). He helped in creating value, having fun, succeeding, failing (remember Dynabook?), and driving impact in partnership with entrepreneurs and the partners at KPCB. In 2004, Vinod, driven by the need for flexibility to accommodate four teenaged children and a desire to be more experimental, to fund sometimes imprudent “science experiments,” and to take on both for-profit and for “social impact” ventures, formed khoslaventures, funded entirely with family funds. His goals remain the same: work and learn from fun and knowledgeable entrepreneurs, build impactful companies through the leverage of innovation, and spend time in a partnership that makes a difference.

Jack co-founded SeatGeek, where he currently focuses on Email and Slack Administration. Prior to SeatGeek he specialized in writing code for IE7 compatibility mode, a skill he is sad to observe is no longer valued in the job market. Jack studied math and economics at Dartmouth College, but also has a sensitive side.

John Locke joined Accel in 2009 and helps lead the firm’s growth fund. He focuses on mobile, software, payments and marketplace companies. John is the lead investor and board member in SeatGeek, GoFundMe, Lightspeed, Wyzant, Invoice2Go, Pond5 and QMC Telecom.

Patrick Collison is the CEO and co-founder of Stripe, the technology company that expands internet commerce by making it easy to process transactions from anywhere. After experiencing firsthand how difficult it was to set up an online business, Patrick and his brother John started Stripe in the fall of 2010. Their goal was to make accepting payments on the internet simpler and more inclusive. Today, the 500-person (and growing) Stripe-team processes billions of dollars a year for hundreds of thousands of companies, from Fortune 500’s to upstarts. Stripe’s vision is to create a world in which an entrepreneur’s success is no longer determined by geography or personal means, but on the promise of their idea. Stripe most recently launched Atlas, a toolkit for starting a global internet business from virtually anywhere in the world. Earlier this year Patrick joined President Obama in Havana in March to open Atlas to Cuban entrepreneurs, and was soon after named a Presidential Ambassador for Global Entrepreneurship. Prior to Stripe, Patrick co-founded Auctomatic, which Live Current Media acquired for $5 million in March 2008.

Derek Andersen ​is the Founder & CEO of Startup Grind, a 400,000 person entrepreneurial community with 200 chapters in 85 countries run by more than 1,000 volunteers. Startup Grind\'s mission is to help every entrepreneur in the world. It\'s core values are giving before you take, helping others first, and making friends. Derek Andersen spent four years in product management at Electronic Arts working on games like The Godfather, Burnout, The Sims 3, and Mirror’s Edge. He left EA in 2009 to start Vaporware Labs, a product incubator which mostly failed but built products including Commonred which was acquired by Income.com in 2012, and Startup Grind. After running Startup Grind as a side project for 2 years, Derek turned his full attention to scaling it from 3 chapters to 200 chapters today. In 2015 Startup Grind will host 1,200 events for 75,000 entrepreneurs. He currently lives in Palo Alto, California but has lived eight years outside the U.S. in France, Germany, Switzerland, New Zealand, and the Cook Islands.

Bryan is the founder of OS Fund. He invests in and advises entrepreneurs who are developing quantum-leap discoveries that promise to rewrite` the operating systems of life. He currently serves on the boards of Human Longevity, Inc. and Planetary Resources.

Prior to founding the OS Fund, Bryan founded Braintree, an online and mobile payments provider. He and his team worked tirelessly to build an exceptional company—one that they loved, and one that was worthy of frequent love letters from its customers. Under Bryan’s leadership as CEO, Braintree acquired thousands of the most discerning and disruptive companies in the world as customers (including Uber, Airbnb, OpenTable, GitHub and HotelTonight) and created the critical infrastructure that powered the industry-wide shift to mobile commerce. Bryan profitably bootstrapped the company for its first five years of operations and Inc. magazine named Braintree one of the fastest growing companies in America two years in a row. The company raised two rounds of venture capital from top-tier firms and was acquired by eBay in 2013 for $800 million in cash.

Reshma is Partner and Co-Founder at Seedcamp, one of the oldest and most respected accelerators in Europe. Reshma has always brought a passion for both technology and business to her work from university through to today. Getting degrees in both Engineering and Business (UPenn M&T) meant that from an early age she was cultivating a path that would always bring business and technology together. Early on in her career during the height of the dot com boom, Reshma worked in M&A and venture capital across B2B Software and Internet services businesses in the US and India. She had a small helping hand in building MakeMyTrip (NASDAQ) in its formative days. Following on from this, Reshma went to INSEAD and earned her MBA, fell in love with Europe and stayed on to work in Commercial and Marketing Strategy at Vodafone. Starting Seedcamp in 2007 was a once in a lifetime opportunity and one that she jumped into with a strong desire to help the European founder realize global success. Reshma brings a good mix of tech, business, commercial drive, marketing and that American chutzpah to the Seedcamp team, and now to Anthemis as well.

Jared Smith is the co-founder and lead engineer for the cloud research company Qualtrics. He\'s been working in the industry for over twenty years, and in that time has become a superstar in the field of startup technology companies. Beginning his career in the early 90s, Smith held the position of consumer product manager at WordPerfect. Upon its acquisition by Novell in June 1994, he became the lead product manager for their Novell Directory Service (NDS) software. Smith would find himself leading product management and marketing for a start-up based in New York City, Juice Software, which was eventually acquired by Microsoft. Following his time at Juice, Smith decided to take a year off to travel South America and returned to Provo, Utah in 2004. He contributed to founding Qualtrics initially, though he wasn\'t immediately able to commit. Google had a place for him, and over the next six years Smith would find himself filling various roles for the tech behemoth. Between 2004 and 2006, he was in charge of online operations for the Google AdSense network. Soon he found himself leading a team of over 180 engineers and product managers, focused on not only supporting Google\'s software offerings but supporting the development community.

Peter Halacsy is the co-founder and technology leader of Prezi. To be able to build a huge, cloud-based, platform-agnostic document authoring service, Prezi has to influence the future of programming. This means that Peter has strong and provocative opinions like how (F)RP and declarative programming are changing the way we build interactive applications, and how microservice models bring real agility to app development. He is big fan of extreme tooling infrastructure to really speed up development cycles. All delivered in his unique, dry style. As an executive manager and co-founder of Prezi, HP believes that organizations should be designed parallel with product, and that super-agile organizations are decentralized and aligned to a higher purpose. A manager’s job is to distribute information and push decision making down the tree of command–making themselves more irrelevant. For that we have to change how people think and act within an organisation and make everybody a leader. HP also co-founded several social organizations. Bridge Budapest aims at boosting the startup community as well as shaping the IT scene in Hungary by showcasing great examples for building global, successful companies. The Hero’s Square initiative strives to eliminate indifference in Hungary by encouraging everyone to stand up and act for others every day. Last but not least, HP co-founded We Are Open, with the goal of improving diversity in the Hungarian workplace, something that was severely lacking but is now beginning to change with over 800 companies signed up and committed to the cause.

As CEO, he has led the company from a basement startup to the industry leader in online data collection and survey analytics. Qualtrics is one of the fastest-growing technology companies, experiencing triple-digit growth in the past four years. The company has more than 5,000 customers including 500 universities, BusinessWeek’s top 30 business schools and almost all of the Fortune 500. Smith is a frequent lecturer at the nation’s leading business schools and is a member of the advisory board for the Masters in Market Research (MSMR) Program at the University of Texas at Arlington. He also serves on the executive advisory board of the Huntsman Cancer Institute. Before Qualtrics, he worked at HP and Ford Motor Company and studied at the Marriott School of Management.

GLOBAL CONFERENCE: https://startupgrind.com/conference

Vinod Khosla is an entrepreneur, investor and technologist. He is the founder of Khosla Ventures, a firm focused on assisting entrepreneurs to build impactful new energy and technology companies. Vinod grew up dreaming of being an entrepreneur, despite being from an Indian army household with no business or technology connections. Since the age of 16, when he first heard about the founding of Intel, he dreamt of starting his own technology company.

After graduating with a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in New Delhi, Vinod failed to start a soymilk company to service the many people in India who did not have refrigerators. Instead, he came to the U.S. to further his academic studies and received a master’s degree in biomedical engineering from Carnegie Mellon University. Eventually, his startup dreams led him to Silicon Valley, where he received a master’s degree in business administration from the Stanford University Graduate School of Business.

Upon graduation, Vinod co-founded Daisy Systems, the first significant computer-aided design system for electrical engineers. The company went on to achieve significant revenue, profits and an IPO. Then, driven by the frustration of having to design the computer hardware on which the Daisy software needed to be built, Vinod started the standards-based Sun Microsystems in 1982 to build workstations for software developers. As the founding CEO of Sun, he pioneered open systems and commercial RISC processors. Sun Microsystems was funded by Vinod’s longtime friend and board member John Doerr of Kleiner Perkins Caufield and Byers (KPCB).

In 1986, Vinod joined KPCB as a general partner. While there, he played a crucial role in taking on Intel’s monopoly by building and growing semiconductor company, Nexgen, which eventually was acquired by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). Nexgen/AMD was the only microprocessor to have significant success against Intel. Thereafter, Vinod helped incubate the idea and business plan for Juniper Networks to take on Cisco System’s dominance of the router market. He also was involved in the formulation of the early advertising-based search strategy for Excite. In addition to his many other contributions at KPCB, he helped transform the moribund telecommunications business and its archaic SONET implementations with Cerent Corporation, which was acquired by Cisco Systems in 1999 for $7.2 billion.

In 2004, driven by the need for flexibility to accommodate four teenaged children, the desire to be more experimental and to fund sometimes imprudent “science experiments,” Vinod formed Khosla Ventures to focus on both for-profit and social impact investments. His goals remain the same: work and learn from fun and knowledgeable entrepreneurs, build impactful companies by leveraging innovation and spend time with a partnership that makes a difference. Vinod has a passion for nascent technologies that have beneficial effects and economic impact on society. While he only serves on the boards of a few select companies, he works closely with most KV companies as they face transitions or key decisions.

Vinod’s greatest passion is being a mentor to entrepreneurs building technology-based businesses. He is driven by the desire to make a positive impact through scaling new energy sources, achieving petroleum independence and promoting a pragmatic approach to the environment. He also is passionate about social entrepreneurship with a special emphasis on microfinance as a poverty alleviation tool. He is a supporter of many microfinance organizations in India and Africa. He also has been experimenting with innovations in education and global housing.

Vinod also is a charter member of The Indus Entrepreneurs (TiE), a non-profit global network of entrepreneurs and professionals that was founded in 1992 and has more than 40 chapters in nine countries today. He is a founding board member of the Indian School of Business (ISB). Vinod holds a bachelor of technology degree in electrical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in New Delhi, India, a master’s degree in biomedical engineering from Carnegie Mellon University and a master’s degree in business administration from the Stanford University Graduate School of Business.]]></itunes:summary>

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Back in 1996, Arndt quit his job at Siemens-Nixdorf to build what would become one of the most successful German web companies — and within just a few years, ImmobilienScout24 had completely disrupted the real estate market. Last year, a 70% stake of the Scout24 group was sold for 1,5 billion euros. It was a hard and arduous path to achieve such success, particularly in the beginning, but Arndt gathered a fantastic team to realize his idea. Part of that founding team followed Arndt after he left Immobilienscout24 in 2008 to start his next company. Inspired by problems he had experienced in his own family, he founded Bettermarks, an online education service specialized in maths and tailored to the individual learner\'s needs. We are excited to welcome Arndt on stage to share his story with us and look forward to learn more about the behind-the-scenes of one of Germany\'s premier internet companies, ImmobilienScout24, as well as lessons learnt from his current endeavor, Bettermarks, which is currently disrupting the market of math education and helping solve one of the thorniest problems of our education system. The interview will be led by Christoph Raethke. Christoph has been working in the digital industry for over 17 years. He has run two semesters of the Founder Institute and is the founder of the Berlin Startup Academy — Berlin\'s boutique, independent Startup Accelerator. In addition to that, Christoph is a frequent speaker at international events and renown for his critical and thought-provoking views.

The event was held February 4, 2014.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[This time with the legend himself: Morten Lund. Morten Lund is many things. Born in deep farmer territory around Roskilde. He\'s angel investor in the biggest telephone company in the world and 85 others. He\'s the kind of guy that can do more in a month than most of us can do in one lifetime. He\'s got Richard Branson, Bill Clinton and Kevin Kelly (founder of Wired) on speed dial (fun fact: If you google \"Morten Lund\" a picture of Richard Branson pops up so they must be close). He\'s a close partner with many top tier venture firms such as Draper Fischer Jervetson. But he\'s also been hit - seriously. He\'s been personally bankrupt for about a year (got out of it again in 2010). Morten is one of the Danish entrepreneurs, who seems to really understand the importance of giving back and have experienced the result of \"giving back\" on his own body. He\'s been involved in a lot of wild stuff such as landmine detecting plants, fixing hunger and obesity and turning salt water and poisoned water into (no, not into gold but) drinkable water.

The event was held January 21, 2014.

He has been named one of Time\'s 100 Most Influential People in the World and one of Fortune\'s 40 Under 40 rising young business leaders. Since its founding in 2007, Change.org has achieved international prominence, attracting 35 million users from every country, hundreds of thousands of user-generated petitions, and coverage in every major media outlet, including the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today. Time Magazine writes: \"Rattray\'s site has quietly enabled tens of thousands of people, many with little exposure to social activism, to launch homegrown crusades on issues ranging from corporate malpractice to immigration reform without ever gathering in a park or square. By marrying one of the world\'s oldest organizing tools, the petition, to one of its newest, the social-media loop, Change.org is putting companies and governments under tremendous pressure to change their policies, sometimes in a matter of a few weeks or less, and it has invited everyone around the globe to participate.\" Rattray is a graduate of Stanford University and the London School of Economics. He leads Change.org\'s strategic vision and is a frequent public speaker about the intersection of technology and social change.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Bryan founded Ibotta in 2011 when he realized the need for a more innovative approach to connecting brands, retailers, and consumers through mobile technology. Prior to Ibotta, Bryan was a partner at a leading law firm and clerked for Justice David Souter at the U.S. Supreme Court. Bryan is a graduate of Harvard, Oxford, and Yale Law School. He sits on the Board of the Association of Marshall Scholars. Ibotta is a technology company building tools to empower consumers and simplify their daily lives. We\'ve done this by completely reimagining the way consumers learn about and interact with their favorite brands. The result is a mobile experience that replaces couponing with fun game-like interactions giving consumers what they actually want: offers redeemable in all major retailers, and real cash rewards instead of credit or points. 

This event was held January 23, 2014.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Since 2008, Burton M. Goldfield has served as president and CEO of TriNet, a strategic partner to small businesses for payroll, HR, benefits, employment law compliance and risk reduction. Burton has more than 25 years of experience in sales, operational, and technology leadership positions and is known for driving product innovation and business growth. Since joining TriNet, Burton has transformed the company into the largest independent cloud-based HR provider and Professional Employer Organization (PEO). With offices throughout America, TriNet serves more than 8,000 customers and over 210,000 employees. Its services allow small businesses to regain focus on executing their visions and growing their businesses while TriNet manages their payroll taxes, day-to-day HR, employment law compliance, and conformity with the Affordable Care Act. TriNet\'s revenue exceeded $250M in 2012 and has more than tripled during Burton\'s tenure. To expand TriNet\'s market reach and strengthen the company\'s ability to serve more clients than ever before, he led the company to acquire LMC, Gevity, AccordHR, SOI and ExpenseCloud. In addition, Burton invested heavily in the company\'s Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) technology platform, leveraging his background from ￼Hyperion, IBM, and Rational Software.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[James Park is a serial entrepreneur with a passion for creating great products and companies. Fitbit is the third startup that he has founded. Previously, James was a Director of Product Development at CNET Networks, where he led product management, engineering, and design for Webshots. Before CNET, James was a co-founder of Windup Labs, which was acquired by CNET in 2005, and prior to Windup Labs, he was the co-founder and CTO of Epesi Technologies. James also worked at Morgan Stanley, where he helped develop trading strategies and software for a quantitative trading fund. James never quite finished his computer science degree at Harvard College.

Jean-Francois \"Jeff\" Clavier is the Founder and Managing Partner of SoftTech VC, one of the most established seed VC firms in Silicon Valley, having closed 150 investments since 2004. An early angel investor in Web 2.0, Jeff and his team have backed successful startups like Mint (Intuit), Kongregate (GameStop), Brightroll, Milo (eBay), Wildfire (Google), Bleacher Report (Turner), Fitbit, Eventbrite, Sendgrid, Fab, Poshmark and Class Dojo. The portfolio has also seen acquisitions by Groupon, Twitter, Facebook, Yahoo and AOL. The firm is currently investing out of its $55M Fund III, making 20 commitments of $500K per year in mobile/cloud saas, monetization infrastructure, marketplaces and e-commerce. Born, raised and educated in France, Jeff graduated with a MS in Computer Science and a degree in Distributed Computing. He joined Effix, a financial services startup, as one of the initial developers while still at school and eventually led it as CTO. After 5 years, Reuters acquired the company and Jeff expanded his remit to several product and development organizations in Europe and the USA. In 2000, he moved to Silicon Valley as General Partner for RVC, the $450M venture fund affiliated with Reuters. In 2004, Jeff left RVC to start SoftTech VC and invest in the early pioneers of Consumer Internet. Within a couple of years, he was being recognized in the media as one of the \"super angels\", and in 2007, he subsequently raised one of the first micro-VC funds, $15M Fund II. After three years, and 60+ investments closed on his own, Jeff built a team and raised a larger, $55M Fund III. One of the early VC bloggers in 2004, Jeff is now a popular conference speaker and social media/TV commentator. When he is not spending time with SoftTech\'s portfolio companies, Jeff enjoys traveling, skiing, scuba diving and hanging out with friends and family.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[We are proud to announce Stephan Schambach as our first guest for our launch event in Berlin. Stephan is a serial entrepreneur and e-commerce legend who built several companies in the US and Europe. Intershop and Demandware are his biggest successes to date. Demandware is the leading cloud-based e-commerce platform serving some of the biggest international brands — ranging from adidas to Lacoste and Panasonic. Demandware went public in 2012, achieving a market valuation of over 1.5 billion dollars. Stephan was born and raised in the DDR, dropped out of college and has been self-employed ever since, focused on becoming an entrepreneur in a society that did not welcome such aspirations. He pioneered e-commerce in Germany with Intershop as early as 1992, moving on to become one of the most important figures in today\'s e-commerce business. The interview will be led by Christoph Raethke. Christoph has been working in the digital industry for over 17 years. He has run two semesters of the Founder Institute and is the founder of the Berlin Startup Academy — Berlin\'s boutique, independent Startup Accelerator. In addition to that, Christoph is a frequent speaker at international events and renown for his critical and thought-provoking views. Our event takes place in the St. Oberholz apartments. As the central meeting point of Berlin\'s digital scene, there could be no better setting for our intimate \"fireside chat\" interview format. We are excited to welcome Stephan on stage to share his story with us and look forward to a great first event at St. Oberholz apartments. 

The event was held December 10, 2013.

In 2000, he founded Infinity Business School. For over 13 years now, Infinity has been offering Management programs with a focus on small batch sizes, contemporary pedagogy and personalized attention. At Infinity, he has designed and delivers several proprietary programs around Personality & Evolution, Globonomics and Wealth Management, which have been appreciated across industry and academia.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Logan Green, co-founder and CEO of Lyft, has long been fascinated by innovation in transportation, having grown up in Southern California and spending much of his childhood stuck in traffic. Lyft, the on-demand ridesharing platform, was founded in 2007 with Zimride as its first of two products built to create a more social, sustainable and affordable transportation system. The idea for Zimride (and ultimately Lyft) struck while Logan was studying in Zimbabwe during college, where carpooling is a common form of transportation among neighbors and communities. Prior to starting Zimride in 2007, Logan created the first car-share program at UC Santa Barbara and served on the board of the Santa Barbara Metropolitan Transit District. Logan was recognized in 2009 as one of Businessweek\'s Top 25 Entrepreneurs Under 25 and holds a B.A. in Business Economics from UC Santa Barbara. As a Lyft driver himself, Logan has a vision to fill the 80 percent of empty seats on the road and ultimately transform the face of transportation around the world. Since unveiling the product in June 2012, Lyft has quickly become one of the fastest-growing tech companies with more than $80 million raised from leading investors Andreessen Horowitz and Founders Fund and has been featured in The Economist, the New York Times and on NBC\'s TODAY Show. Lyft is currently available in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, San Diego, Chicago, Boston and Washington, D.C., with more than a million rides shared on the platform to date.

The event was held September 24, 2013.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Royston Tay is CEO and co-founder of Zopim, a six-year old Singaporean startup that provides live chat softwares for websites. Zopim creates amazingly simple and affordable customer engagement tools that help online businesses engage their customers. Their award-winning flagship product Zopim Live Chat, is the most popular Live Chat software globally with more than 120,000+ websites actively using to chat with 260 millions website visitors every month in 54 languages.
 
Zopim has four co-founders who all met in the San Francisco Bay Area while attending the NUS Overseas College Program. Shortly after returning to Singapore, they crashed a networking event where the famous venture capitalist, Tim Draper, was present. An elevator pitch later, Tim was intrigued enough to request a demo of Zopim at his Sandhill office. A prototype was feverishly developed in two months and presented to Tim. While he passed on the opportunity to invest at that early stage, Zopim managed to raise seed funding through the iJam grant, administered by NUS and a Singapore government agency MDA.

The event was held August 29, 2013.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Vinod grew up dreaming of being an entrepreneur, despite growing up in an Indian Army household with no business or technology connections. Since the age of 16, when he first heard about Intel starting up, he dreamt of starting his own technology company. Upon graduating with a bachelor\'s in electrical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, Vinod failed, at age 20, to start a soy milk company to service the many people in India who did not have refrigerators. He came instead to the U.S. and got his master\'s in biomedical engineering at Carnegie-Mellon University. His start-up dreams attracted him to Silicon Valley, where he got an MBA at Stanford University in 1980. Upon graduation he was one of the three founders of Daisy Systems, which was the first significant computer-aided design system for electrical engineers. The company went on to achieve significant revenue, profits, and an IPO, but Khosla, driven by the frustration of having to design the computer hardware on which the Daisy software needed to be built, started the standards-based Sun Microsystems in 1982 to build workstations for software developers. At Sun he pioneered \"open systems\" and RISC processors. Sun was funded by longtime friend and board member John Doerr of Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. In 1986 Vinod switched sides and joined Kleiner Perkins, where he was and continues to be a general partner of KPCB funds through KP X. Through the years there, with other partners, he took on Intel\'s monopoly with Nexgen/AMD (the only microprocessor to have significant success against Intel, sold to AMD for 28 percent of AMD), incubated the idea and business plan for Juniper to take on Cisco\'s dominance of the router market, formulated the very early advertising-based search strategy for Excite, and transformed the moribund telecommunications business and its archaic SONET implementations with Cerent (sold to Cisco for $7B). He helped in creating value, having fun, succeeding, failing (remember Dynabook?), and driving impact in partnership with entrepreneurs and the partners at KPCB. In 2004, Vinod, driven by the need for flexibility to accommodate four teenaged children and a desire to be more experimental, to fund sometimes imprudent \"science experiments,\" and to take on both for-profit and for \"social impact\" ventures, formed khoslaventures, funded entirely with family funds. His goals remain the same: work and learn from fun and knowledgeable entrepreneurs, build impactful companies through the leverage of innovation, and spend time in a partnership that makes a difference. .

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Hari Karunanidhi knew a regular day job is not for him, and so he started his first company with his friend. Soon after they realized whatever they were doing was not going great. After talking to customers, they realize what could be done and then new Interview Street was born. With Facebook, Amazon, Quora and Microsoft as their clients they are doing pretty good and have started another company called Hacker Rack.

Hari is going to talk about his experiences and his daily struggles. We will also discuss things which worked and didn\'t work for him in past. A little about his companies: 
Interview Street is best way to hire programmers and you choose your hires with code challenges. Hacker Rank is a platform for hackers to solve fun programming challenges, across multiple domains of computer science, in a language of their choice and learning opportunities as they go.
Both of the companies are backed by multiple VC\'s and angel investors.

His investors list read like a who\'s who of Washington\'s top business leaders from the likes of Steve Case, Marc Andreessen, Jack Biddle, etc and has raised close to $136 million in venture funding.

And through his sheer tenacity and raw guts he persevered the post dot-com era to become one of the most successful startup companies in the DC area.
