May 17 STEVE “CAPTAIN HOFF” HOFFMAN | From Hollywood to Silicon Valley to China

Millions of people in the tech & startup world know Steve Hoffman as "Captain Hoff" from Foundersspace, a leading incubator from Silicon Valley that is now omnipresent throughout China. But very few people know that his FIRST career was as a development executive in Hollywood, and this is the first time Steve's talked about all this in-depth since beginning his China adventures.

The lessons he's learned from his success shaping startups & stories are invaluable, & applicable regardless of your vocation or location.

I especially love his closing thoughts: “Are you putting your time into the most important things? Given who you are and where you are in your life, what's the most value you can be creating for the people around you and the world around you, and can you focus your energies on that instead of getting distracted by all these other things?”

This was a very fun and special conversation, so I hope you check it out.
