Recent leaks of private records have revealed the inner workings of Peter Thiel's invite-only Dialog network, including a secret A-B-C grading system applied to its members from the worlds of business, politics and technology.
Established in 2006 by Thiel and entrepreneur Auren Hoffman, Dialog functions as a closed forum for influential figures to engage in off-the-record conversations. It has operated with minimal public profile for two decades, hosting retreats at exclusive venues while declining to name participants.
