    An interview with Warren Shaeffer, Founder of Knowable.

    A bit about Warren:

    Warren Shaeffer is a 2x company co-founder, a 2x human co-founder, and a 1st generation American.
    He's currently the CEO and Co-founder of Knowable, a venture-backed audio platform whose mission is to unlock billions of hours of learning time in order to help more people achieve their potential. He started Knowable to solve his own problem: he wanted to learn new skills, but couldn't find the time for video courses.

    Prior to Knowable, Warren was the CEO and Co-founder of Vidme, a video platform that grew to over 25 million monthly users (acquired by Giphy), and the COO and Co-owner of SocialEngine (acquired by Room214).
    Prior to becoming a tech entrepreneur, Warren worked as an investor at Golden Gate Capital, where he helped launch a billion dollar credit fund, and as an investment banker at JPMorgan in the technology and media group.
    Warren is a graduate of Harvard where he was a member of the Harvard Lampoon, and currently splits time between Portland and LA with his partner and two toddlers. Warren enjoys story telling in all its forms, and occasionally performs live stories for the Moth.
    He also recently performed stand up comedy for the first time at an open mic. He was nervous, but did get some laughs.

    Interview with Ed Vincent, Founder of Festival Pass. 

    "Had an absolute blast chatting with Ed. His background with Movie Pass, understanding of marketplace dynamics, unit economics and the journey he's on with Festival Pass will make for some super interesting listening" - Adam Callow

    A bit from Ed Vincent:

    Hi, I’m Ed, founder of the world’s first festival and live events subscription service providing access to music, film, food and wine, and tech and innovation — Festival Pass.

    I’m an entrepreneur with over twenty years of business, technology, and management experience having founded and exited several companies in that time including helping to launch film festivals in multiple locations and creating the concept for a Maxim branded hotel in the Carribean. Most recently, I led a data platform and consultancy in the entertainment space with clients including A&E Networks, AMC Networks, Screenvision, MovieTickets.com and was brought into MoviePass as an interim head of data.

    These experiences gave me the insight needed to make festivalPass a reality.

    I have learned what works and what doesn’t work in this space and look forward to inspiring people to lead active and engaging lives every day by participating in live community events both locally and globally.
