What it does

Hello there! I’m a general partner at Andreessen Horowitz, investing in brand new startups as part of a16z Speedrun . I write a newsletter. You’d enjoy if you like long-form essays on startups, user growth, and network effects — I’ve written over 650+ essays. If you want more, I’ve written The Cold Start Problem, a best-selling book featuring interviews from the founders/teams behind Slack, Clubhouse, Zoom, Twitch, Tinder, Reddit, Uber, Airbnb, PayPal, and more. PS. I have moved my primary writing to Substack and will be publishing there from now on. In the meantime, I will leave andrewchen.com up for posterity and for archives. Enjoy! PPS.
