Tesla, Yelp, YouTube, Meta, Palantir, Affirm, SpaceX, LinkedIn, and countless other Silicon Valley companies were founded or seeded by alumni of a single company founded in the mid 1990s: PayPal. Jimmy Soni goes deep behind the scenes of the epicenter of the most powerful forces that have shaped the modern world. With captivating and detailed accounts from the principals of the team--Thiel, Hoffman, Musk, Sacks, Levchin, and others--"The Founders" will stand as the standard bearing book of the start of the modern tech industry. We'll ask Soni about his research, the libertarian ethos behind these entrepreneurs, the chauvinism of Silicon Valley, and the prospect of antitrust or personal information protections in the United States. Join us for this live session with Q&A, or listen to our podcast: 99pages!
