The GoPro Mafia
No one thought a surf trip would spark a media revolution. But in 2002, Nick Woodman couldn’t film his wave rides up close, so he built the solution.
With $10,000 from selling belts out of a van and a loan from his mom, he launched GoPro. The goal was simple: make it easy for anyone to capture epic moments from their own point of view.
What started as a DIY hack became a global brand. GoPro didn’t just create a camera. It changed how the world records adventure, turning everyday users into front-row storytellers.
With a bias for action and a knack for bold ideas, GoPro alumni are shaping new industries. Former team members have gone on to launch startups like Photoroom, Drop Water, and Enflux, raising millions in the process.
The GoPro Mafia has founded 22 companies and raised $83M.
