We are thrilled to have investor, philanthropist, and bestselling author, J.D. Vance!

J.D.’s #1 NYT Bestselling book, Hillbilly Elegy, explores social and economic challenges in small-town America from his personal viewpoint. On November 24, Hillbilly Elegy the movie will be available on Netflix, which was directed by Ron Howard and features an incredible lineup of A-list actors.

He is also a founding partner of Narya Capital, which is a venture capital firm focused on backing great ideas and entrepreneurs outside of Silicon Valley. Listen in as J.D. shares his experiences turning a law school essay into a #1 NYT Bestselling book, consulting on a star-studded movie, and investing in Middle America. Topics include:

  • Cultural and economic impacts of the loss of the American industrial base
  • Opioid addiction and how it is still plaguing the working class
  • Value of empathy in politics
  • Re-investing in America
  • How Middle America entrepreneurs can differ from those on the “Coasts”
  • How cities can be successful in playing to their strengths and by creating the right infrastructure to support VC
  • And, If politics are in his future
