Justin Kan

I'm Justin Kan. I co-founded Twitch, and today I build Stash, which helps game developers sell directly to players. I also invest in founders at Goat Capital.

My first startup was a calendar app called Kiko. Y Combinator gave us about $12,000, few people used it, and we sold it on eBay. Then I strapped a camera to my head and streamed my life, which became Justin.tv and later Twitch. Amazon bought it for $970 million.

I've had big wins and a $75 million failure at Atrium. Ask me about starting companies, learning from failure, and finding happiness beyond success.
