Sometimes I write blog posts or opinion pieces that don't fit into 280 characters.

This is the place where I share them with others:

The Sand Hill Road podcast is my open exploration of what's fresh in the world of tech.

I have learned more from podcasts than from any book or class, so this is my way to add to that library of human knowledge.

Here it goes:

The Sand Hill Road youtube channel is an open-ended conversation with founders and venture capitalists about the tech startups they build and invest in.

The goal is to give viewers a sense of what it is like to be in their shoes, to understand how their businesses tick, how they got to where they are and to learn from their many successes and failures.

Person

Hi, I'm Erasmus Elsner.

I'm an institutional venture and growth capital investor. In the past I founded a small consumer marketplace that was backed by a top tier Silicon Valley VC firm and Brian Armstrong, founder of Coinbase. Before that I was an academic, worked in finance and corporate law and wrote lots of buggy code in my freetime.

If you want to get in contact with me, reach out to me on the Twitter, through Reid Hoffman's social network, Naval's list or through good old SMTP.
