Sonal Chokshi

Editor in Chief at Andreessen Horowitz

Sonal Chokshi is Editor in Chief at Andreessen Horowitz aka "a16z", which she joined nearly 7 years ago to build the editorial operation — which many people have observed as being a "media outlet that monetizes through VC". For podcasts, this includes building, growing, hosting, and showrunning the popular and influential a16z Podcast, now a network; conceiving of and hosting the shortform news analysis show 16 Minutes; conceiving of and shepherding the launch of Journal Club (now part of Bio Eats World), including training all editors into podcasting; bringing on outside voices and a network of book publishers, publicists, and authors onto the podcast; and much more.
