Sponsor testimonials
Jane Street and Stripe are long term partners.
Here is what previous advertisers have said about the experience of working with me:
James Evans, CEO of CommandBar:
Very proud that CommandBar is now sponsoring the Dwarkesh podcast (together with Stripe and v7 labs) @dwarkesh_sp delivers probably the highest signal to noise in AI and tech generally. AND is exactly the same person privately as you see in the pod -- thoughtful, kind, diligent, ambitious. [source]
Kian Sadeghi, CEO of Nucleus Genomics:
For a 60-second ad,
Did a deep dive into our science and models
Developed a storyline
Worked with the team on several rounds of revision
Stayed true to the audience
How you do one thing is how you do everything — don’t miss this opportunity to work with a true professional who’s all about craft!!!!!!! [source]
Alberto Rizzoli, CEO of V7 Labs
Our very first sponsorship experiment with @dwarkesh_sp to tie into the Llama3 launch. He's very responsive and picky on endorsements and a pleasure to work with. [source]
