What you likely need
Nathan is one of the most accomplished founders in tech history as co-founder and CSO of Airbnb, a publicly traded company with a multi-billion dollar market cap. His profile is dominated by founder signal — a landmark IPO, massive scale, and deep technical roots — with only nascent angel investing activity visible publicly. The biggest opportunity now is to leverage his platform and capital to build a more visible investing or philanthropic legacy.
Are these your current priorities?
We will tune and customize your Founder Festival experience to make sure you get invited to the events that would be most valuable to you.
- positioningFormalize your angel investing activity by joining a recognized platform (AngelList, NFX Signal) to make your deal flow and portfolio visible to founders seeking your backing.
- introsRe-engage with the Y Combinator alumni network as a mentor or guest speaker — Airbnb's YC origin story is one of the most compelling in the program's history and gives you instant credibility with early-stage founders.
- positioningPublicize your role as Chairman of Airbnb China more actively, as cross-border tech leadership is a rare and highly valued signal for founders and investors operating in Asia.
- positioningWrite or speak publicly about Airbnb's trust-and-safety architecture and marketplace design — these are areas where your decade-plus of hands-on experience is genuinely scarce and in demand.
- fundraisingConsider launching a small thematic fund (e.g., travel-tech or marketplace infrastructure) to systematize your investing and attract co-investors who want exposure to your deal flow and judgment.
- hiringOpen-source internal tooling or infrastructure built at Airbnb (e.g., data engineering, trust systems) to build a technical community and attract engineering talent.
- tacticalContinue and deepen your EU policy engagement — your direct meetings with EU Commissioners position you as a rare founder-diplomat and could unlock favorable regulatory outcomes for Airbnb across Europe.
