Matt Mcllwain, Madrona Venture Group Managing Director [Forbes Midas List]
Manage episode 466699977 series 3645158
What a great treat it was to interview Matt. He's a good friend of Chris Scully (COO of a company I started in 2007, Killer Shark Marketing). In this episode you will hear Matt discuss how Madrona was an "Early investor into Amazon and many other great companies we all know and love." A fun fact about this episode, Matt broke a rib the day before while skiing and didn't want to cancel the interview! So, you will be hearing Matt speak with a freshly broken rib which to me speaks wonders about how he operates personally and professionally. Thanks, Matt for taking the time to come on the Interesting Humans Podcast. You certainly deserve a seat on the show! Here's Matts formal bio:
Matt graduated from Dartmouth College and holds an MBA from Harvard Business School and a master’s in public policy from Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government. He has been on the Forbes Midas list and Top 100 Venture Capitalists by CB Insights and The New York Times several times. In 2024, Business Insider named him to The AI Power List, which features the most powerful people in artificial intelligence.
