87: David Sacks, Founder of Craft Ventures

There are few individuals in the world that have seen, built and led multiple of the world’s iconic companies. David is one of them.

He was a core member of PayPal and served as the company’s first product leader and COO. David went on to found enterprise collaboration company Yammer, one of the fastest growing SaaS statups in history - Microsoft acquired Yammer for $1.2B just 4 years after its founding.

Not only has David been a successful founder, but he has also been one of the most impressive investors in tech, having personally invested in over 20 unicorns, including Affirm, AirBnb, Facebook, Lyft, Opendoor, Palantir, Postmastes, Reddit, Slack, SpaceX, Twitter and Uber amongst others.

I got David’s thoughts on a variety of lessons leading, operating and investing in multiple multi-billion dollar companies.
