Rethink Our Learning System, with Union Square Venture Partner Albert Wenger | Episode 38 The Ones Who Succeed

    • Entrepreneurship

This week, a conversation about education, climate, startups and everything in between with Albert Wenger. Albert is a partner at Union Square Ventures, a top-tier venture firm with early investments in companies like Twitter, Etsy, Duolingo, Tumblr, Indeed & Twilio, to name a few. His thoughts and ideas regarding tech, investing, and even climate change are expressed through his blog Continuations (a blog I highly recommend). Nevertheless, I sat down with Albert in mid-October as I was keen to discuss his entry point into the world of startup investing, how Covid has shifted the venture landscape and why this pandemic has forced us to rethink the way we learn. This conversation was recorded on October 14th, 2020, thanks for listening!
