Summary

Laura Modiano announces she is joining OpenAI to lead Founder Experience, a function dedicated to supporting founders from day one through every stage of growth.

In the last couple of years I’ve had a front row seat to the future. So I’m excited to be stepping into a new role at @OpenAI leading Founder Experience, taking the work I’ve been doing with founders, developers and investors across EMEA to a global level. I have travelled around the world meeting founders at meetups, universities, VC events and hackathons, builders creating incredible companies. The jump from builder to founder is one of the most important moments on their journey: going from experimenting, hacking and prototyping to building a company, creating value for others and shaping what’s next. We’re building this function around a simple belief: if you are building in the service of others, then we are in the service of you. Founder Experience is focused on helping founders move fast, be supported from Day 1 and through every stage of growth.
