Matteo Franceschetti of Eight Sleep on Founding, Health, and Sleep Fitness (EP.180)

As long term listeners know, I struggle with sleep. I'm in perfect health with an incredible body and an incredible mind, yet perfect sleep continues to elude me. Luckily, the O'Shaughnessy's chimed in on one of my twitter rants and pointed the way to today's guest, Matteo Franceschetti. Matteo is the co-founder and CEO of Eight Sleep. Part of our discussion is a fascinating look into sleep, an area that consumes about a third of our lives; and has a massive impact on our health and longevity. In addition, we cover Matteo's previous startups, his experience with Y Combinator, and what it takes to grow a 'hardware' company in an environment where software is eating the world.  Guest - Matteo Franceschetti, Co-Founder & CEO at Eight Sleep  howardlindzon.com, eightsleep.com  Twitter: @howardlindzon, @m_franceschetti, @eightsleep, @knutjensen  linkedin.com/in/matteofranceschetti #fintech #invest #investment #venturecapital #stockmarket #finance
