Something Airbnb has in common with Google and Facebook: Ron Conway did a huge amount of work for them behind the scenes. As I told the Airbnbs 10 years ago, if you plan to get really big, you want @svangel in your cap table.

Curious to know how
@svangel stands out & what are those things they do that creates this massive impact?
There are two things that are unique about Ron and @svangel: their level of commitment to helping founders, and the number and level of the contacts they have.
We once had a startup whose bank account got frozen just before Christmas. Ron called the bank's CEO and fixed it.
