In this episode of Empire Jason & Santiago are joined by legendary VC investor Bill Tai. Bill has successfully funded 20 startups that wen't on to IPO. Zoom, Canva, Dapper Labs, Twitter & Wish.com are just a handful of companies Bill was among the first investors in. Due to Bill's ability to spot key technology trends at major inflection points, we invited him on the show to discuss the exponential growth of technology, crypto vs the early days of the internet, creating new digital economies, online communities, DAOs & so much more!
