Vinod Khosla is one of the leading investors and technologists of our time, consistently making Forbes’ Midas List (basically the Oscars for venture investors) as head of Khosla Ventures. He was an early innovator in the world of computer chips and an early investor in OpenAI, as well as backing successes like DoorDash, Stripe, and Headspace. We unpack Vinod’s investment thesis, his utopic vision for our future, and how he thinks founders in AI and beyond can build a winning strategy.
