Paul Biggar founded a billion-dollar tech company. Then he became one of Silicon Valley’s most outspoken activists against Israel’s latest war crimes in Gaza. Paul joined this episode of The Dino Podcast to discuss his experience being vocal on the issue of Palestine in an industry that has historically been anything but. We discuss the material ways in which American Big Tech is instrumental to Israel’s war machine and occupation, the historical code of silence about Palestine among venture capitalists and tech founders, and what motivated Paul to speak up now. Paul Biggar is a renowned technologist and expert on compilers. He co-founded CircleCI, a CI/CD developer tool startup that went on to be valued over $1 billion. He also recently started Tech for Palestine, an organization that supports tech builders who aim to help the Palestinian people.
