thielpeter1071webJoin Peter Thiel, technology entrepreneur and co-founder of PayPal, for a thought-provoking evening as he imparts lessons from his new book Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future. In conjunction with Wired magazine, Peter will discuss the contrarian and often overlooked principles that are fundamental to building valuable companies and doing new things in business.

Peter was one of first investors and directors at Facebook, and has provided early funding for LinkedIn, Yelp, and dozens of other successful technology startups, many run by former colleagues who have been dubbed the ‘PayPal Mafia’. He has been named The Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum and one of the 25 most influential people on the Web by BusinessWeek, both affirming his status as Silicon Valley icon.
