Andrew Chen, General Partner at a16z speedrun, joins us on Agentic to discuss what actually gets founders accepted into speedrun and why AI might be bigger than mobile, internet, and cloud combined.
In this episode, we dive deep into:
- Speedrun Insider Access - What actually gets founders accepted into a16z's elite accelerator program (hint: it's not what you think)
- Building in AI - From industrial AI agents (Nexxa) to consumer products, how founders should approach the AI wave
- Growth Playbooks - Network effects, retention curves, and go-to-market strategies that actually work
- The Future of Software - What happens when coding becomes as easy as taking a photo? Andrew's vision for disposable apps, meme software, and the death of traditional job titles
