Michael Skok started his first software business at 15 programming on the HP-65, spent nearly two decades building companies before becoming an investor, and developed an "Everything as a Service" thesis back in 2002, years before cloud computing was mainstream, which led him to back Demandware early. He later built Startup Secrets, a Harvard program running over a decade with more than 10 million YouTube views, where he teaches founders practical tools like 4U and Gain/Pain, pushes the idea that disruptive innovation shouldn't be disruptive to adopt, and tells entrepreneurs to solve problems they're uniquely suited to solve—alongside his investing work, he's also known for his photography and adventure sports.
