Biz Stone
Biz Stone is the co-founder and Creative Director of Twitter, the platform that redefined public discourse. Born Christopher Isaac Stone in Boston, he dropped out of college twice, designed book covers, and walked away from $2 million in unvested Google stock to help build what became one of the most influential communication platforms in history. Beyond Twitter, he co-founded Jelly Industries (acquired by Pinterest), The Obvious Corporation with Evan Williams, and in 2024 joined the board of Mastodon's U.S. nonprofit - a quiet statement about where social media should go next. His guiding philosophy: opportunity can be manufactured.
