Q&A With The Winklevoss Twins: Two Is Better Than One

We had an absolutely blast catching up with the Winklevoss Twins about the past, the present and what the future holds for them. See the recording of our event below:

As you may know, the Winklevosses got their start as tech entrepreneurs when they co-founded ConnectU in a Harvard dorm room eight years ago– a story that was immortalized on the silver screen in “The Social Network,” a film that made them household names. Most recently, the twins co-founded a private investment firm, Winklevoss Capital, where they focus their attentions on promising early-stage startups.

We kicked off our informal Q&A by asking the twins questions dating back to the early days of starting Facebook back in Harvard, the extent of their involvement in Facebook today, and what they would do differently if given a chance to change the past. The rest of the conversation focused on their current role in the tech and web investment world. The twins shared some of their strategies and secrets about how they picked the companies they invested in and told us about which new startups they’ve funded recently and why. We’ll wrapped up the Q&A session by opening up the conversation to the audience, giving everyone a chance to ask the twins any of your burning and unanswered questions.
