Homebrew is one of the great venture firm names. It hearkens back to the 1970s era computer hobbyist group that included people like Steve Jobs. Hunter Walk and Satya Patel are the partners who founded and built Homebrew (the venture capital firm).
Nevertheless, if you say “Hunter and Satya” in Silicon Valley, people will know exactly who you are talking about.
Hunter Walk came to homebrew with experience as a product leader at YouTube and Google. Meanwhile, Satya Patel's background was as a seasoned investor at Battery Ventures and product leader at Twitter.
In this episode we discuss the power of partnerships in Silicon Valley. In particular we talk about the power of the 2 -person partnership (see also: Andreessen Horowitz), why the alchemy has to be right, and why some don’t make it.
We also discuss the evolution of Homebrew from a firm backed by outside capital (from Limited Partners or “LPs”) to one in which the two founders deploy their own capital.
Finally, we cover Hunter and Satya’s newest fund: Screendoor. Screendoor has a mission of supporting underrepresented General Partners of emerging venture capital funds by providing capital, access and mentorship.
