How Well Do You Know This Investor?

Have known this investor for years (know them very well)

10

Ben brings a unique combination of wisdom and humility to Venture Capital. Despite his incredible achievements (seed investor in Allbirds, Ethos Life), Ben is incredibly down-to-earth. He asks in each conversation how he can be helpful to our startup. His decades of experience make him one of the first calls when we have a fundraising, hiring, or go-to-market question.
