The Meet the Drapers team is heartbroken to hear of the passing of @CapitalFactory's CEO, @JoshuaBaer. We are honored to be featuring Joshua in our Austin, Texas episode of the Draper America Tour. He built an incredible home for entrepreneurs in Texas and beyond. His impact on the startup community will forever be honored and remembered.
Our prayers and condolences go out to his family and all those who had the privilege of knowing him. 🙏
I passed on Netflix.
I passed on LinkedIn.
Got outbid on Facebook.
Sat next to Sergey and Larry on a plane, brought Google to my partners, and heard, "Draper, you've gotten us into six search engines. Why do we need another one?"
People ask me about my failures all the time.
I sat down with Nicole Petallides on Market Overtime last week and we covered all of it:
→ Why 7 of the 10 biggest companies in the world turn over every 20 years (and why that turnover is speeding up)
→ Robot "brains" that learn how to pour water without spilling it, the same way an LLM learns language
→ The shift in healthcare from chemical whack-a-mole to bio cures
→ Why every family should hold six months of Bitcoin, and why a treasurer or central bank without it is being irresponsible
→ The best advice I've ever heard anyone give an entrepreneur
→ And of course… my favorite failures of my career
Thank you Nicole and the Market Overtime team for having me.
