Our founding managing partner @lo_toney was on @CNBC to discuss #SiliconValleyBank and fiduciary responsibility.
It has been a wild 48 hours as we unfortunately lost a cornerstone financial institution of the technology + life sciences ecosystem in Silicon Valley Bank.
This morning, I shared my thoughts on the situation and reminded viewers that investment managers + VC firms are fiduciaries and have a responsibility to the universities + colleges, endowments, foundations + retirement systems to prudently manage risk.

Great conversation today with @ScottWapnerCNBC on the importance of “flat” organizations to drive innovation from the lower ranks
"We see this move toward flattening. I think that's always been a hallmark of the most successful tech companies," says @lo_toney on reports of Meta's latest round of layoffs

Exciting times for sure with the recent #AI announcements in the past few days. Today, I shared my perspective with @ScottWapnerCNBC on @CNBCOvertime
"This is potentially that once in a lifetime opportunity to be able to actually go up against the dominant incumbent, Google, and actually compete for market share," says @lo_toney on Microsoft announcing an AI-powered Bing homepage
