The New Yorker recently has posted a piece covering Silicon Valley venture capital powerhouse Andreessen Horowitz, otherwise known as a16z, and its unorthodox founders, Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz. In the long-form profile article, The New Yorker’s Tad Friend had the opportunity to interview both a16z co-founders before sitting in on a formal funding pitch from San Fransisco-based data-analytics startup Mixpanel. The piece reveals the seemingly unique way a16z's co-founders, part of Netscape's original team, question entrepreneurs and then decide on particular venture deals.
