On Cloud Giants, a podcast brought to you by Bessemer Venture Partners (BVP), Byron Deeter interviews entrepreneurs, founders, and great leaders who have built world-changing cloud companies.


In this episode, Byron talks to Jeff Lawson, the founder and current CEO of Twilia, a well-known American cloud communications platform as a service company whose communication services touch many of the most popular applications we use each day.

Listeners will hear about:

  • What sparked Jeff’s interest in entrepreneurship, beginning with his arrival at university during the 90s.
  • After coming up with the idea for college lecture notes delivered over the internet, he got to work on making this idea a reality.
  • Jeff’s experience as Stub Hubs first Chief Technology Officer (CTO).
  • How Twilio was in fact Jeff’s fourth entrepreneurial effort. Having been given an opportunity to work at Amazon Web Services (AWS) during its early stages this ended up giving him the insight needed to make his vision a reality.
