Yancey Strickler on Life After Kickstarter and Why Artists Should be Our Business Heroes

from Overshare: Honest Conversations with Creatives · host Working Not Working

Yancey Strickler, co-founder and former CEO of Kickstarter, joins host Justin Gignac (@justingignac) on stage for a candid chat about life after Kickstarter. He reveals his rule of believing in everything, the ego benefits of seeing an astrologist, the importance of putting more love into the world, and why he grew a mustache inspired by the Beatles to help him write his ambitious book about challenging the dominance of financial maximization as the driving force of society. Yancey shares many insights from his last decade at Kickstarter - taking it from a simple idea with two co-founders to a platform that has generated more than $3.5 billion in funding for more than 125,000 creative projects.
