Few investors, like Vinod Khosla, are frankly or thinking big. The founders of Khosla Ventures have never avoided calling for hype, doubling their ambitious bets, or looking beyond gradual progress on the founder.
This October, TechCrunch was hampered in 2025, taking place in Western Moscon, San Francisco on October 27-29, with Khosla returning to the chaos stage for a fireplace chat that promises insight, provocation and inspiration. In a session filled with experience and hard-working lessons, he shares his unpleasant take on the world 15 years from now. This is advice that entrepreneurs need to listen to, not just what they want to hear, to build a permanent business in a turbulent era.
