Alexis Ohanian, born April 24, 1983, is an entrepreneur and investor in Brooklyn, NY, best known as the co-founder and executive chair of reddit, a platform for online communities to share links and have discussions. While he learned his earliest lessons in leadership and web design from his high school Quake 2 clan and Everquest guild, Alexiscontinued his official studies at the University of Virginia, where he met his future co-founder Steve Huffman during freshman year move-in day. This would lead to the founding of reddit, which he recounted along with many lessons for entrepreneurs, in his national bestseller, Without Their Permission.At UVA, Alexis majored in business and history with a minor in German. Though he had originally planned to become an immigration lawyer, he experienced an epiphany in his junior year (while sitting in a Waffle House) that led him to the realization that he didn't want to practice law. Instead he convinced his best friend Steve to start a company with him.The pair traveled to Cambridge, MA during their senior year spring break to hear Paul Graham give a talk titled "How to Start a Startup." After the lecture, Alexis invited Graham out for a drink so he and Steve could pitch Graham on their business idea. Graham agreed, loved the idea, and suggested they apply to a new seed stage venture firm he'd launched called Y Combinator.
Alexis and Steve's original plan was to build an infrastructure that would allow people to order food from their cell phones. Though the idea was rejected, Alexis and Steve were invited to join the first class of Y Combinator, on the condition that they'd come up with a new concept. The next idea they pitched to Graham would become reddit.com.

Having supported Research and Development and Technological Innovation projects in the private sector since 1991, the Technology Development Foundation of Turkey (TTGV) has proven to be a successful example to all of Europe as an innovative and dynamic intermediary. Intermediaries were mentioned in the EU Lisbon Communiqué as being necessary forconveying public support for R&D in the private sector. As one of the providers of one of the many bridges felt every passing day between the legislation in line with the national goals of the public and private sector, the TTGV helps maintain the existence of a transparent, observable and effective mechanism that provides opportunities for participation in the private sector through the management of public funds. Soft loans and compulsory company contributions, which make up the main principles behind TTGV’s support, have provided important benefits to Turkey’s R&D capacity thus far through the “multiplier effect” by promoting an increased contribution of public funds to R&D expenses in the private sector. TTGV is evaluating the expectations, needs and priorities of the private sector and the public, by developing new support mechanisms suited towards the changing conditions and circumstances of Turkey. TTGV employs those mechanisms. Today, TTGV is a sought out partner, both inside and outside of Turkey, in the field of technological innovation.
