Hilbert Space EP.02: The Growth Infrastructure with Bryan Kim, Partner @ a16z

In this episode, we sit down with Bryan Kim, Partner at a16z, to dig into what growth actually costs when it goes wrong, and what it takes to build the infrastructure to get it right. Bryan spent over five years at a16z backing some of the most ambitious consumer businesses of this era, including ElevenLabs, Function Health, Mirage, Partiful. Before that, he built and ran growth at Snap (from 100 people and zero revenue to 4,000 people and $2B in revenue) and developed firsthand what it means to think about growth as a systems problem, not a metrics problem.
