In this episode of the Black Web 2.0 Show, we sat down with Michael Seibel CEO of Justin.tv. Michael, one the few black CEOs in Silicon Valley, co-founded Justin.tv in 2006 along side his good friends Justin Kan, Emmett Shear, and Kyle Vogt. Justin.tv started in 2007 when co-founder Justin Kan decided to live stream his life online 24/7 through a cap retrofitted with a camera. Justin.tv has since evolved into a network of diverse channels providing a platform for live video streaming of events online.

In this interview we discussed, Michael Brooklyn upbringing, and his subsequent move to the west coast. We also talked about Michael’s entrance into fundraising, as well as his life as a black CEO in Silicon Valley. We also took this opportunity to discuss current economic crisis, and its effects on Silicon Valley.

Enjoy!!
