I’ll occasionally write about startups, technology, science, and the history of entrepreneurship. I consider you entrusting a bit of you attention to me a big deal and a real responsibility, so aim to only write enriching content. 🤞 you find it that way!

The best way to get a flavor of my writing is to read it.

Would love to hear your thoughts on my writing, so feel free to drop me a note on Twitter where I’m @sethbannon.

Who is Seth Bannon?

I’m a founder & investor using technology to solve the world's biggest problems. As a Founding Partner at Fifty Years, I’ve seeded a range of startups shaping the world for the better — companies like Solugen (engineering enzymes to produce industrial chemicals sustainably), Astranis (small satellites to cover the Earth on the Internet), Opentrons (lab robots to speed up biology), Upside Foods (fka Memphis Meats, culturing meat to eat), and Substack (this beautiful site saving the future of news). I love helping great scientists become great entrepreneurs and believe the future of business will be about more than just profit. 

I’m also the co-founder of Impact.Tech, a community of entrepreneurs combining purpose with profit, and was previously the founder & CEO of startup Amicus.

I can often be found in parks around the world trying to hustle the chess hustlers.
