Nick Tommarello has probably helped fund more American founders than almost anyone alive.
But Nick’s not a businessman — he’s a founder. That distinction matters a lot to him and it defines everything about him.
See, Nick loves risk and he thrives on uncertainty and chaos. He’s good at helping founders because he literally can’t imagine having a regular job.
Join us for a loose conversation about Nick’s childhood working at his dad’s nightclub, how his dad became a millionaire and went broke over and over, how Nick got congress and President Obama to sign a bill and what Nick wants his tombstone to read.
