WORLD-CLASS FOUNDERS REVEAL THEMSELVES

(Not just what they have for breakfast)

A quiet moment for the people who built the digital future to reflect on what built them, through the Proust questionnaire.

A few of its timeless questions.

When and where are you happiest?
What do you most value in your friends?
What is your most treasured possession?

Answering the Proust Questionnaire gives leading tech founders a rare pause, a chance to turn the lens inward.

For the rest of us, it offers a glimpse behind the glowing logos, into the brilliant human minds shaping how we live, work, and dream.

“Blessed are the geeks. For they shall inherit the earth.”

WHAT YOU’LL FIND HERE

A small, considered collection of conversations with founders who’ve built something meaningful, and no longer need to explain themselves.

Unhurried interviews

Thoughtful answers to the Proust Questionnaire, away from status updates, performative ambition, and public narratives.

Think Beethoven, not AI-generated fillers (we’ll just skip Für Elise).
Think croissants, not productivity snacks.
Think inner life, not personal brand.

No growth hacks. No hot takes. No advice threads.
Just clarity, curiosity, and personal perspective.

YEAH, BUT I’M HERE FOR REAL CROISSANTS
