Founder of Drive Capital, Chris Olsen, left a dream job as a partner at Sequoia to prove that billion-dollar companies could be built outside Silicon Valley. In this candid conversation, he unpacks the founding of Drive Capital, why geography no longer limits great ideas, and how authentic leadership, disciplined fundraising, and building powerful local ecosystems can drive long-term success.
We also get personal, talking about failure, family, gym routines, and why comparing yourself to yesterday is the real competition.
A must-listen for founders, funders, and anyone who cares about building for the long game.
