henrymodis · x · 2026-09-23
Gagan Biyani announced the launch of The Horowitz Andreessen Academy, a new school in San Francisco for the most promising high school graduates. Its #1 goal is teaching students to build — the most important skill in the AI era — primarily through self-directed individual and group projects, supplemented by classes and guest lectures from people who built modern Silicon Valley. The Academy is designed as a network. Separately, Ben Barry will co-teach a Brand and Visual Identity course at the school.
