Renaud Visage, cofounder and CTO of Eventbrite, the leading global ticketing and event technology platform. In the episode Renaud talks with Hadley about moving to San Francisco, joining his first startup and the early days of starting Eventbrite. Renaud details his experience when the financial crisis hit in 2008, which we feel will be especially useful for founders to consider when the next downturn happens.
Renaud speaks to his experience spending time in both the US and European tech ecosystems.
Finally, in the lighting round Renaud talks about why most startups fail, his interest in the travel and AR sectors, what he’d like to see changed in venture capital and his favorite tech company.
