Reid Hoffman Biography

Reid Hoffman is an American entrepreneur and venture capitalist, most famously known for co-founding LinkedIn, the professional networking site acquired by Microsoft for $26.2 billion in 2016. 

He was part of the "PayPal Mafia," a group of early PayPal employees who shaped Silicon Valley through the 1990s. He served as the company's COO and fueled its growth phase until it was acquired by eBay in 2002 for $1.5 billion.

A graduate of Stanford University in symbolic systems and a holder of a master's degree in philosophy from Oxford, there's no doubt about the cerebral duality he brings to his business ventures. As a partner at Greylock Partners, Hoffman has keyed in on companies like Airbnb, Aurora, and Flickr early on.

His adaptability and rapid growth expertise have led him to co-author books such as "The Start-Up of You" and "Blitzscaling.”
