Episode notes

Small tech companies are leading to a revolution for people who want to be individual creators. I get upset with when washington talks about tech is that it's this monolithic thing. And like where i'm focused and american dynamism, these are small tech companies that are trying to solve the country's big problems. We should not be afraid of that. But we're talking about small businesses. Nothing is not attack business any more.

We sit down with a16z General Partner Katherine Boyle to discuss investing in “American Dynamism”, why it’s so important and why now is the right time to pursue it. Katherine has a fascinating background, beginning her career as a reporter at The Washington Post before entering the VC world first at Founders Fund, then General Catalyst and now a16z. Her perspectives don’t fit neatly in any box — political, economic or otherwise — and we have a great conversation exploring them. Tune in!
