Sebastian Mallaby has gained better access to venture capital partnerships in Silicon Valley than any previous writer. Notoriously secretive venture firms, including the famously successful Sequoia Capital, gave him dozens of interviews as well as internal records and memos. Mallaby uncovers what he's learned in his new book, The Power Law: Venture Capital and the Making of the New Future. Mallaby is also the Paul A. Volcker senior fellow for international economics at the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). An experienced journalist and public speaker, Mallaby is also a contributing columnist for the Washington Post, where he previously served as a staff columnist and editorial board member. His books include More Money Than God: Hedge Funds and the Making of a New Elite, a New York Times bestseller, and The Man Who Knew: The Life & Times of Alan Greenspan, winner of the 2016 Financial Times/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award and the 2017 George S. Eccles Prize in Economic Writing. Transcript Watch on YouTube *Register for my Ask Me Anything Zoom Call on February 1st!
