Tim Westergren, Founder

Meet, hear and speak openly with Tim Westergren, founder of Pandora – “a new kind of radio — stations that play only music you like.” Pandora celebrates “insatiable curiosity” by helping you find and discover new music you will love. Pandora is powered by the Music Genome Project — “a crazy project to capture the complex musical DNA of songs”. Pandora is hugely popular at 8 million listeners and counting. Still, like many innovations, Pandora struggles to hit upon just the right business model to sustain its mission.

Tim’s inviting style is a great fit for our interactive gatherings: “Ask any questions you have about the company. The more we can talk to each other, the better.” So bring your thoughts, questions, ideas — and also your best wishes for Pandora, for “at the bottom of Pandora’s Box was Hope”.
