#172 — Scott Hartley, Everywhere VC: discovering and developing the best founders around the world

Listen On

Scott Hartley was a researcher and went on to work with product and operations at companies like Facebook and Google. But the most well-known part of Scott’s journey began when he hit Sand Hill Road.

Scott went on to become a co-founder of Two Culture Capital and Everywhere Ventures. Across these two VC firms, he invested in over 300 startups around the world — Latitud and LatAm included.

In a world now ruled by AI, Scott talks instead about IA, or intellectual amplification. On a similar note, he’s also the author of The Fuzzy and the Techie: Why the Liberal Arts Will Rule the Digital World.

In this chat, Scott and I talk about:

• What makes him confident about investing early on and in multiple countries;

• The difference between fuzzy and techie entrepreneurs;

• And the advice Scott shares most often with startup founders.
