Garrett Camp Distills His Uber And StumbleUpon Expertise Into New Holding Company Expa

Screen Shot 2013-05-02 at 12.52.01 PMThe rise of the company builders is right. As Leena wrote in her spot-on post, "Operators are foregoing the traditional path of joining a traditional VC to instead create a studio-like holding operation." The latest in a series of accomplished entrepreneurs wanting to lend their expertise to a new generation of companies? Serial entrepreneur Garrett Camp, who has set up the holding company Expa to nurture his ideas for products.Camp tells me Expa will be very close in model to the holding companies started by entrepreneurs Max Levchin (HVF), Evan Williams (Obvious) or Michael Birch (Monkey Inferno), and be more focused than something like Science or Betaworks. "I've come up with 10 ideas over the past year that I'm interested in," he revealed, confirming that Expa will stay small. "But realistically only three or four will really come to fruiton."
