Today’s guest is Matthew Stafford – an investor and co-founder of 9 Others, a global community for founders, where once a month, ten entrepreneurs come together over dinner and help each other by answering this one question, “What keeps you up at night?”

Matthew started 9 Others with Katie Lewis in 2011 and it’s now a global network of thousands of entrepreneurs in over 45+ cities around the world from London to Manchester, Karachi to Yemen.

Matthew also works with startups, venture capital and angel investors, governments, NGOs and large corporations. He has invested in twenty three startups, and had two exits so far and he has written a book - Find Your 9 Others.

In this wide-ranging conversation, we discuss what Matthew looks for in founders, why 9 Others is so special, the importance of having a network and what is keeping him up at night.

Enjoy!
