Timothy Draper

Timothy C. Draper is the Founder and a Managing Director of Draper Fisher Jurvetson. His original suggestion to use “viral marketing” in web-based e-mail to geometrically spread an Internet product to its market was instrumental to the successes of Hotmail and YahooMail, and has been adopted as a standard marketing technique to hundreds of businesses. Mr. Draper launched the Draper Affiliate Network, an international network of early-stage venture capital funds with offices in over 30 cities around the globe. He founded or co-founded DFJ EPlanet (global), Draper Fisher Jurvetson Gotham (NYC), Zone Ventures (LA), Wasatch Ventures (Salt Lake City), , Draper Atlantic (Reston), Draper Triangle (Pittsburg), Timberline Ventures (Portland), Polaris Fund (Anchorage), DFJ Frontier (Sacramento and Santa Barbara), and DFJ Dragon (Shanghai).
