David Sacks

David Sacks intrigues me because he is both a sharp early-internet investor and a voice that shapes the conversation around technology. Co-founding Craft Ventures and co-hosting the All In podcast, he doesn't just write checks, he narrates the era in his own words. That combination of capital and commentary is, to me, the most formidable kind of influence in tech. His arc from Cape Town to Stanford to the center of Silicon Valley speaks to real nerve. An investor who can also tell the story is, I'd argue, the one to watch most closely.
