John Battelle

Founder of 7+ companies. Current: DOC. Last: Recount Media. Best known: Wired. Author. I think by writing, which often leads to new projects and new companies. Boards: LiveRamp, Sovrn, UC Berkeley Journalism. I invest as well, a relatively new endeavor - about 35 investments, mostly in seed or Series A companies in media, technology, data. I do a fair bit of stage work, as an interlocutor and producer of events. Follow me on Medium or BlueSky (@battellemedia.com) and/or check out my writings here or on battellemedia.com.
