Jim Scheinman is known for coming up with the name Zoom and being one of its earliest investors, after working as an early employee at Friendster and later helping lead business development and sales at Bebo during the first wave of social networks. He's known as a hands-on coach to founders more than a typical financier, and he moved quickly into consumer AI after ChatGPT, echoing the way he spotted earlier opportunities like Zoom and Cruise.
