"Same day same outfit?!" Great day across two great events: First, I loved speaking with moderator extraordinaire Natalie Steck at the SVB/First Citizens Bank "Meet the VC" at the Columbia Tower Club, discussing the venture landscape, PSL Ventures key investment themes in 2024, investing in underrepresented founders across the PNW tech ecosystem at Pioneer Square Labs, and state-wide education policy as it feeds the local innovation ecosystem. Thanks to the SVB team, sponsors (Perkins Coie LLP, Escalon), and the Seattle founder community for coming together to create such a great event! Then, one block west, I got to spend the evening with pals Oren Etzioni, Maria Karaivanova, and Lucas Nivon debating the future of AI innovation at the Harvard Club of Seattle Annual Dinner at The Rainier Club. Many thanks for having us, Harvard Club of Seattle + Kelly Charlton. Super energizing to spend quality time with so many friends and leaders in this wonderful community. Thanks again, all!

𝗧𝘂𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗽𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵-𝗩𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 We’ve talked to a lot of companies this year and a pivotal challenge stands out: deciding on effective strategies while lacking the necessary expertise for execution and mechanisms to build, test and kill ideas quickly. This traditional inward-focused approach—delayed by the need for organizational alignment and the consternation of transformative technologies —increases the risk of falling behind. 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗽-𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘁���𝗼𝗻. The rise of venture building presents a unique opportunity for product and innovation teams to test new concepts with the focus of building a growth engine for the organization. Partnering with external venture studios to tap into specialized talent ready to go and processes to achieve significant progress in less time.

It's been too long since we covered rockets, satellites, and the physics of space. Austin Link joins us to give the 2024 space industry update and share what Starfish Space is up to with their self-driving satellite (that docks with other satellites). https://lnkd.in/gpHxgXj2

Congrats to the Vault Fund team on an amazing 2024 TakeOff Summit. Greg Gottesman, T. A. McCann and I were psyched to represent Pioneer Square Labs + PSL Ventures and speak with y'all out in NYC. Great people, great learnings, excellent program, fun sponsors, and a beautiful venue to boot. You all knocked it out of the park. Congrats Sarah Adams Anderson, Francisco Gomez, and Vault Fund team. Such a blast. (p.s. Props to Kevin Crosby & Joyce Chen for awesome moderation!)
