About
Hi - my name is Elias Bizannes, tweetfully known as @EliasBiz. I'm a director at venture capital firm Charles River Ventures. I'm also a scout for Angel List, board director of the DataPortability Project, instigator of the StartupBus, a loud-mouth for Australian tech and a fighter in the Baracustani Liberation Army. Sometimes I blog.
