Ben Pouladian I love exploring the world of technology, trying to make sense of it, identifying what's being disrupted, who the key disruptors are, and where value is either being created or destroyed. If I were a professor, I'd teach this as a class; if I were an author, I'd write a book about it. But as an investor, my job is to wake up every day and study the most fascinating trends, people, and technologies. Sometimes, I come across an asymmetric opportunity—where I feel I understand something just a little better—and on the venture side, I’m fortunate enough to partner with world-class founders and teams, owning part of the company and being part of that long journey. On the public side, it's a similar experience, often being a participant in long-term growth stories Key Influences *Management -- Jim Collins *Business as Life -- Richard Branson *Investing -- Peter Lynch *Tenacity and Vision -- Steve Jobs *Coaching -- John Wooden *Invention -- Elon Musk *Tech Innovation -- Andy Grove *Adventure -- my friends *Relaxation -- Backyard workouts! *Zen - -My daughters *Bliss -- My wife
