The panel will be moderated by Eric Newcomer, founder & CEO of Newcomer, the startups and venture capital media and events company.
Having written about Silicon Valley for over a decade, Eric has established himself as a go-to voice for understanding what’s going on in Silicon Valley. Eric quit his job as a reporter at Bloomberg in 2020 to start Newcomer. He covered startups and venture capital for Bloomberg for six years. Before that, he earned his stripes as a tech reporter as the first employee at tech news site The Information. Today, he’s building Newcomer into a full-fledged media and events business with two full-time employees and several high-profile insider events a year.
