Randi Zuckerberg has long been a pioneer in both technology and media. As an early employee at Facebook and the creator of Facebook Live, she was on the front lines of shaping the social internet and how billions of people interact with content. Her lifelong passion for the arts paired with her career in tech has been pivotal in her quest to help families navigate the complexities of an increasingly digital landscape.

In response to the crypto market’s growing gap in diversity, inclusion, and accessibility, Randi founded HUG in early 2022 with the mission of empowering artists to become successful creative entrepreneurs. HUG is an inclusive social platform that provides artists with tooling to showcase and sell both physical and digital work, while also connecting them with one another and one-of-a-kind opportunities for their art. Randi’s leadership has led HUG to become a global community of more than 20,000 artists from 160 countries and counting, with Randi having personally mentored over a thousand of them with their crypto-enabled businesses.

Randi holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Harvard University. She serves as both an investor and advisor to several early and mid-stage companies and sits on the board of directors for The Motley Fool and Life360.

Alongside her career as a tech innovator, she is an accomplished artist and producer who has performed on Broadway, winning three Tony awards for Hadestown, Oklahoma! and The Inheritance. She hosts a weekly business talk radio show, Randi Zuckerberg Means Business, on SiriusXM.

She is an avid runner, having completed several marathons. While she may be known as “Mom to Start-ups”, Randi spends her days learning, growing, and sharing her love for arts with her husband and three children.
