    In 2014 I invested $100M to start OS Fund which invests in scientist entrepreneurs predictably engineering atoms, molecules, organisms and complex systems. OS Fund companies have created self fertilizing crops, are storing information in DNA to make biology your next hard drive, designing proteins that nature never got around to in over a few billion years of evolution, just to name a few world changing advances OS Fund companies now have in market.

    Braintree enables payments for thousands of the most discerning and disruptive companies in the world (including Airbnb, GitHub, OpenTable and Uber) and created the critical infrastructure that powered the industry-wide shift to mobile commerce. Bryan profitably bootstrapped the company for its first five years of operations and Inc. Magazine named Braintree one of the fastest growing companies in America two years in a row. Braintree acquired Venmo in 2012 and was bought by eBay/Paypal in 2013 for $800 million in cash.
