# Peter Thiel Events Index of discrete events that touch [[Peter Thiel]]. The **canonical pages live in `/Events/`** (and deals in `/Deals/`) — this is a curated index that links to them, flags gaps to fill, and grows as beats from the [[Peter Thiel Calendar]] mature into events. > **Boundary rule:** one fact, one home. Events live in `/Events/`, deals/rounds in `/Deals/`, the chronological donation record in [[Thiel Political Donations Timeline]]. This page never duplicates them — it points to them. ## Founding & company events - [[Palantir Founding]] — May 2003; In-Q-Tel seed - [[Founders Fund]] — founded 2005 (no standalone /Events/ page yet) - [[PayPal Mafia]] — the originating network event ## Capital & deal events (in /Deals/) - [[Thiel Argentina Move]] — Apr 2026; $12M Buenos Aires mansion, [[Javier Milei]] meeting - SpaceX IPO (June 12, 2026) — marked the Founders Fund position at $50B+; see [[SpaceX]] and [[Peter Thiel News Log]] - Founders Fund Growth IV $6B close (May 2026) — largest fund in firm history - [[Panthalassa]] $140M Series B (May 2026) — Thiel personally led ## Ideology & public-posture events - Rome "Antichrist" lectures (April 2026) — see [[Peter Thiel Ideology]] - "Objection" AI-judge startup launch (April 15, 2026) — [[Aron D'Souza]] - [[Dialog Society]] membership leak (June 2026) ## Disputed / receipts - [[Peter Thiel - freedom and democracy compatible]] - [[Peter Thiel - competition is for losers]] - [[Peter Thiel - hesitates on human race surviving]] ## Gaps to fill (no /Events/ page yet) - A standalone `/Events/` page for the SpaceX-IPO Founders Fund windfall (currently only in news logs) - A `/Events/` page for the Founders Fund Growth IV close - The Gawker/Hulk Hogan verdict as a historical `/Events/` record ## See Also - [[Peter Thiel Calendar]] — look-ahead - [[Peter Thiel News Log]] — look-back feed - [[Peter Thiel Dossier]]
