One of the many advantages of attending a university of Stanford’s pedigree is that you get to say things like “The lecture was called ‘Entrepreneurship & Venture Capital’ and was led by Peter Wendell and Eric Schmidt.” The same Eric Schmidt, who was a long-time CEO of Google and probably one of the best-known managers in Silicon Valley, and famous investor Peter Wendell gave the fateful lecture at Stanford years ago that changed Evan Spiegel’s life. In the OMR Podcast, he talks about the failure of his first startup, drops his take on when augmented reality glasses will become part of people’s everyday lives and why he still believes in Twitter’s potential. Today, some 350 million people use the app globally. By founding Snapchat in his mid-20s, Evan Spiegel reached billionaire status at a very early age.
