Chris Sacca
Chris Sacca (born May 12, 1975) was a legendary investor in Silicon Valley. He is known as an early investor in many innovative technology companies, such as Twitter, Uber, Instagram, and Twilio. He is also very famous for his unusual career.
In 2007, when Google was at its peak, Sacca left the company and became a venture capitalist. Ten years later, at the age of 42, he was recognized as the world's top VC, but he announced his early retirement, saying, "The startup investment work I do is not as exciting as it used to be." After retiring, he founded Lowercase Capital, starting with his wife and interest in the climate crisis.
“Before making an investment decision, I invite the founders to my house for dinner. And after the meal, I watch to see if they put their dishes in the sink. Because someone who lacks basic etiquette is unlikely to run a company properly.”
