John Borthwick of Betaworks on Embracing Experimentation
'The Business Starter'. John Borthwick is the founder and CEO of Betaworks, a New York based business described variously as a company of builders, a start-up studio, and a seed stage venture capital company. Betaworks has built a diverse range of companies that sit at the intersection of media and technology, including Giphy, TweetDeck, and Dots. Last year, they announced the launch of a $50 million early-stage fund called betaworks ventures, designed to support all three of the company’s investment portfolio models - from Betaworks owned, to theme based accelerators to investment in outside companies. John and I talked about why small is beautiful when it comes to unlocking creativity, about the first time he saw the Internet, and why using technology to connect people isn’t enough.
