About Warren Shaeffer
I'm an entrepreneur, executive, and investor with a track record of launching successful products. As an entrepreneur and executive, I've helped create products that have been used by hundreds of millions of people, and raised venture funding from some of the world's best investors, including Andreesen Horowitz, Initialized Capital, and First Round Capital. My last three companies were acquired. As an investor and scout for A16Z, I support ambitious entrepreneurs who use technology to tackle humanity's biggest problems. Investments include Kobold (AI for mining), Croptide (Fitbit for crops), and Loop (high-trust social network). I get energy working with wildly ambitious, mission-driven people who challenge the status quo and drive 10x+ improvements. I believe that the best businesses, and the best people, think win-win and play the long game. As a lifelong learner, my personal goal is to learn and improve every week. TLDR: I've been fortunate to have had a lot of career success so far, and I'm just getting started! You can also find me on Twitter: @wwshaef
