Fireside Chat with Samir Kaul (Founding Partner @Khosla Ventures)

​Join BASES and SABA for an informal fireside chat with Samir Kaul of Khosla Ventures, joined by the CEO of Formulary Financial, a Khosla portfolio company (lead investor Samir).

​Khosla Ventures was the first venture firm to invest in OpenAI and has backed companies like DoorDash, Instacart, Stripe, Square, Affirm, and Impossible Foods.

​Who it's for: Stanford students interested in startups, venture capital, and fintech, plus anyone curious about Khosla Ventures and the companies it backs. No startup experience needed.

​What to expect: A moderated conversation about how Samir evaluates founders and ideas, what it's like building a company from the founder's seat, and where fintech is headed, followed by plenty of open Q&A.

​Bring your questions: how to start building while you're still a student, whether to do a PhD or start a company, which communities are worth joining, and how to make the most of your time at Stanford.

​Free and open to the Stanford community. Location will be announced soon.
