A new technology, known as Li-Fi, could one day offer internet speeds one hundred times faster than the Wi-Fi we use today. Scientists have achieved speeds in the lab of up to 224 GB per second.

He is the chairman of BuzzFeed, and had an early stake in Business Insider, where he sits on the board. He also adores his children, Ben and Izzie, both of whom he’s installed in positions of power in New York’s media and technology scenes. And why not?
