Louw Hopley

Entrepreneur · Engineer

Hi, I'm Louw.

I build tech businesses. Currently, Magic Safari. Previously, Root and Falkon.

I'm drawn to problems people think are impossible. After years of building companies and scaling teams, my obsession now is AI-native businesses and 10-100x'ing what a single person can build.
