About Kent Lindstrom
Kent Lindstrom is one of the few VCs who hosts a long-running Silicon Valley podcast called "Something Ventured" (named by Fortune as one of its "Best Business Podcasts"), which gives him unusual access to other top investors and creates a multi-year intelligence network around venture patterns that directly informs his investing decisions. He has rare first-person experience with social networks and network effects from his time as an early advisor, investor, and then C-suite leader (COO, CFO, CEO) at Friendster—one of the first global social networks that existed before Facebook and Twitter—combined with his role as COO at Nuzzel, a social news aggregator backed by top-tier firms like a16z, CRV, and Homebrew.
