What people say about dynamism
“It can be tricky for ex-founders to find great companies to work for - Richard and dynamism team went to extreme lengths to support me to successfully land the perfect next role. Dynamism's network is epic and no surprise they've become the go-to for technical Y Combinator alum exploring new opportunities.“ - Edwin K (YC alum)
“Richard’s been backing ambitious founders forever—he even prepped me for YC in 2019. He has an uncanny eye for high-agency people. We just hired an ex-Unicorn operator to build out a new function referred by Dynamism, the kind of candidate who could walk into any startup they wanted.” - Luke H, Head of Growth ElevenLabs.com Prv Head of Product at PostHog
The venue was founded in 2015 by leading Silicon Valley entrepreneurs—including Steve Chen (YouTube), Kyle Vogt (Cruise), Steve Huffman (Reddit), Brian Armstrong (Coinbase), and Michael Siebel (Y Combinator).
