Inside the playbook behind the podcast turned into a $400,000,000 venture fund - Harry Stebbings

Today on BILLIONS, I’m sitting down with Harry Stebbings — the guy who turned a microphone in his bedroom into a $400 million venture fund.

He started The Twenty Minute VC as a teenager, and it became the place where the smartest founders of unicorns, and the world’s best investors all lined up to talk.

In this episode, Harry opens up about the deals he missed, the unicorns he caught early like Linktree and Tripledot, and how he turned content into capital.

If you’ve ever wondered how storytelling can build an empire, this is the playbook.
