# 1:1 product/fundraising chat with Alex Kwon

> DM me first before booking please. Recommendations: Sarah Tavel General Partner at Benchmark “Alex is one of those founders you believe in and want to be successful. When I first met Alex years ago, I was struck by his vision, authenticity, and consumer insight. I led a small "discovery" investment in Alex's company One Minute. To me, it wasn't about the company as much as it was my belief in Alex.. I always follow what he's working on and I'd recommend you do too.” Chris Hulls CEO, Co Founder at Life360 “Alex is a very creative and thoughtful PM.. he saw the arc of Life360's path to success and I am looking forward to seeing him follow the same trajectory.” Siqi Chen CEO, Co Founder at Runway *“I've advised Alex for a while across two companies and I found him to be super scrappy, super persistent, and is extremely creative in product innovation. I've found him to be unusually positive and is very open to feedback, which helps his team act quickly. I'm always eager to catch up with him and see what his latest creative pivot is, and I'm usually impressed and surprised.”* Dylan Keil CEO, Co Founder at Bearing “After working with Alex closely, I can confidently say he is an exceptionally talented product leader. He is a rare mix of extremely creative but also very practical and resourceful. Alex is an inspiring storyteller with a compelling vision, and I know he has both the skillset and the drive to make it a wildly successful company.” Bo Nam President, Co Founder at Ludis Analytics “*Alex is the real deal. He’s got grit, an innate sense for product and design, and is one of the most refreshingly genuine people I’ve ever met. Alex maintains an incredible pace of designing, building, and shipping products, which I am in awe and envy of. Whenever I talk to Alex, I leave laughing or inspired, and I know I’m not alone because I constantly run into other founders that say the same. I never question if he will succeed, but rather when, and how many times over. I want to be involved in everything he’s working on, and I highly recommend others to do the same!”* Andy Bauch CEO of Morty/ ex-CTO at Sensei (by Larry Ellison) “Over the years I’ve been nothing but impressed by Alex’s product instincts, generosity, hustle, and grit. Plus he manages to have fun throughout. Would highly recommend anyone who gets the chance to work with him, or back something he’s building, to take it.”
