About
Albert Wenger is one of the few top-tier VCs who wrote an entire book arguing we've entered a "knowledge age" where attention, not capital, is the binding constraint, and he uses this thesis to evaluate technology investments while being an early mainstream VC proponent of universal basic income as critical infrastructure for an automation-heavy economy. He open-sourced his book "World After Capital" online and iterated it publicly over years through his blog and podcasts, treating his worldview like open-source software while connecting climate, AI, and social policy into one coherent investment framework rather than focusing on specific sectors.
