About Ryan Breslow

Ryan Breslow dropped out of Stanford in 2014 to launch payment startup Bolt. In January 2022, he stepped down as CEO. He is now chairman.

Breslow has raised $1.3 billion for Bolt, including $355 million in January 2022, which valued the company at $11 billion.

Forbes estimates the company is now worth around $5 billion as private markets have tanked.

Bolt has attracted investors like BlackRock, General Atlantic and SAP by promising an Amazon-style checkout to millions of online retailers.

Breslow--a fan of yoga, meditation and dancing--rarely socializes. He initiated a four-day work week for his 700 employees.

Breslow runs early-stage wellness startup Love, which he founded in January 2022.
