What Stanford Taught Us: 3. Everyone is building something.
Why is everyone in the Bay Area building a startup?!
At Stanford, it wasn’t weird to pitch a startup idea over coffee, meet a VC person at a class dinner, or join a group project that turned into a real company. In this episode, we reflect on the energy of being surrounded by builders - classmates, professors, and even strangers at the next table in Palo Alto - and how that culture shaped the way we think about ideas, execution, and taking risks.
We talk about our favorite entrepreneurial classes, fellowships, and wild opportunities that could only happen in the Bay Area, like casually grabbing lunch with a Fortune 500 exec or presenting a startup pitch to real investors. Whether you're dreaming up your next project or just love hearing how others build things, this one’s for you.
