How to contact Ron Conway?

Angel investors generally don't publicize their contact info. They rely on referrals; they don't have the infrastructure for dealing with a high volume of unfiltered proposals, like a VC fund would.

Get an intro from one of the many startups he's already an investor in. There are literally hundreds of them.

perhaps he does not wish to be contacted except by people who he gives his contact information to?

Looks like it might be worth trying to get to Brian Pokorny of Baseline Ventures first.<p>More info here: <a href="http://www.thefunded.com/funds/partner/17407?name=Ron+Conway" rel="nofollow">http://www.thefunded.com/funds/partner/17407?name=Ron+Conway</a>

Use your network ? - from what I've seen the social network among startups is pretty tight, most people on HN are probably only a couple of connections away from Ron at most.

If you are not in the Valley probably you are out of luck...I would like to contact him too...but I'm not in the Valley.

Post your start-up on Hacker News. Maybe someone who knows him will be impressed enough to mention you in passing.

Yes, I think so because I have seen his name many times and also received his email very often. See this link: <a href="http://vator.tv/user/show/RonConway" rel="nofollow">http://vator.tv/user/show/RonConway</a> Is it hard to find him ?? You do the last puzzle. Jg

I think this is his website: <a href="http://www.baselineventures.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.baselineventures.com/</a><p>There's a lot of information on it too...you can find lawyers and other advisors. And some really cool web2.0 advice.<p>:D
