Investor fireside chat - a conversation with Jordan Baker
A roundtable chat with Jordan Baker Founding general partner of Seattle’s Athenaeum Ventures. Jordan Baker took an unconventional path to venture capital. Leaving home at 14, cycling through three high schools, and dropping out at 16, he bypassed college entirely to forge a career in music, streaming, and gaming, most notably building the gaming-culture agency Moonrock before raising his debut fund.
Jordan focuses on backing "maverick" founders and mispriced ideas in venture capital, avoiding traditional "consensus capital" where investors crowd around the same credentialed backgrounds.
