I've known and learned from @RonConway for more than 40 years. I'm glad to see @svangel team up with @bchesky to mentor and support companies working to create more economic empowerment opportunities for people across the world.
I've been reaching out to many of the people who supported Airbnb in our earliest days to say thanks. While there are a number of people who believed in us, without Ron Conway, Airbnb wouldn't be what it is today.

A special thanks to @BillGates for stopping by The #CarlosWatsonShow. It was a pleasure to catch up again and I was reminded once more of the incredible leadership you have shown on #COVID19 & #healthcare. Feel #Grateful & #hopeful! Enjoyed our talk! bit.ly/3gB0Yjl
We must ensure these innovations reach everyone, not just those who can afford to pay. Our newest commitment to the COVID-19 response is our largest to date, but only a fraction of what is needed.
Bill Foege and Viktor Zdanov are phenomenal examples of what it means to harness science for global health. A well-deserved honor.

To reduce duplication, focus the government’s efforts, and get the most innovation out of every dollar of funding, we should create a new organization: the National Institutes of Energy Innovation.
We need to revolutionize the world’s physical economy—and that will take, among other things, a dramatic infusion of ingenuity, funding, and focus from the federal government.

Dr. Tunji Funsho’s work with @Rotary was essential in stopping wild polio in Africa and will help create a polio-free world for all. A well-deserved recognition.
On Aug. 25, 2020, Nigeria was declared polio-free, clearing the virus from its last redoubt in all of Africa. "The person who did more than any other to drive polio to continent-wide extinction was Dr. Tunji Funsho," writes @jeffreykluger #TIME100 time.com/collection/100…
