Peter Thiel appears in 82 mentions across 51 documents, primarily in emails and correspondence from 2013-2018. He is most frequently mentioned in the context of social gatherings and business meetings at Epstein's residences alongside other tech billionaires and political figures.
Thiel appears predominantly as a third-party reference rather than as a direct correspondent. He is mentioned in guest lists for exclusive dinners and events at Epstein's homes, including a notable Sunday lunch with Bill Gates and Mort Zuckerman. Several mentions come from 'Dialog' conference invitations co-signed by Thiel and Auren Hoffman. In later documents from 2018, there are cryptic references to Thiel visiting or being 'in town' in what appear to be text messages or calendar notes. There is no evidence in these snippets of direct email correspondence between Thiel and Epstein.
Key Highlights
- •Named as attendee at a Sunday lunch at Epstein's house with Bill Gates and Mort Zuckerman, described in what appears to be a media article about Epstein's social circle
- •Co-signed invitations for 'Dialog 2014' conferences with Auren Hoffman, appearing in multiple documents as a conference organizer
- •Mentioned in a brief 2019 email list alongside scientists like Lawrence Krauss and business figures, seemingly as contacts for Steve Bannon
- •Referenced in 2018 text-style messages: 'Thiel coming' and 'Peter Thiel in town,' suggesting scheduled meetings or visits
- •Described in conference materials as 'CEO of Thiel Capital, Managing Director of Founders Fund, former founder and CEO of PayPal' with board positions at Facebook and Palantir
