Vivjan Myrto grew up in communist Albania and started his first business at age 7, taught himself to code by 10, and at 11 helped bring the internet to Albania by selling access door-to-door, giving him an unusually deep entrepreneurial and technical foundation from childhood. After surviving cancer as a teenager and being told he had about a year and a half to live, he moved to the U.S. for treatment and now focuses on backing founders who are fighting insurmountable odds, approaching venture capital from his perspective as a serial founder rather than purely as a financier.
