As discussed, attached are some basic materials on Founders Fund – our team, approach, sample portfolio companies – along with a brief blurb below: Founders Fund, whose partners and funds were the first outside and institutional investors in companies including Facebook and SpaceX, is a San Francisco based venture capital firm that allocates capital to transformational technology businesses. The firm is distinguished by the entrepreneurial experience of its investment partners: Peter Thiel (PayPal; Palantir Technologies); Ken Howery (PayPal); Sean Parker (Napster; Plaxo; founding president, Facebook); and, Luke Nosek (PayPal) – all successful founders of companies worth $1 billion or more – and by its novel pursuit of investments in companies that seek very large markets, usually though significant technological breakthroughs (rather than incrementalist approaches). In addition to an outstanding consumer internet portfolio (Peter Thiel, Founders Fund Partner, was Facebook’s first backer and the first funds have substantial positions in the social networking company; the firm has also backed Spotify, the revolutionary music service), Founders Fund has recently found tremendous opportunities in next-generation biotechnology, advanced analytical software, artificial intelligence and aerospace. Founder Fund’s general methodology is to source proprietary deals from within our networks, to focus on companies we feel will be transformational, and to adopt a prudent, yet founder-friendly approach to helping those companies succeed. Thank you again and best regards, Lauren Lauren Gross Principal, Founders Fund 1 Letterman Drive, Building C, Suite 420 San Francisco, CA 94129 (o) 415 230 5920 (m) 650 248 5767 lauren@foundersfund.com Click here <https://www.mailcontrol.com/sr/wQw0zmjPoHdJTZGyOCrrhg==> to report this email as spam.
