Join us for a conversation with Jason Calacanis, serial technology entrepreneur, author of Angel, host of the popular podcast This Week in Startups, and one of Silicon Valley’s most successful angel investors.

As a “scout” for top Silicon Valley venture capital firm Sequoia Capital and later as an angel investor, Jason Calacanis has invested in 150+ early-stage startups including 6 “unicorns” (billion-dollar valuations). His book Angel: How to Invest in Technology Startups: Timeless Advice from an Angel Investor Who Turned $100,000 into $100,000,000 was published by Harper Collins in July 2017 and has so far garnered 250+ five-star reviews on Amazon.com. Jason got his start in the 1990s as a reporter covering the budding internet industry in New York and then helped found Weblogs, one of the early digital media companies, which, in 2005, he sold to AOL for $30 million.

This is a unique opportunity to hear Jason, with his trademark blunt style and good humor, provide a Silicon Valley insider’s look at angel investing, launching and growing startups, and thoughts on what’s happening in the tech industry.
