What you likely need
You're a three-time acquired founder with a rare dual founder-investor profile, and the right Festival rooms can accelerate both your Chatsee.ai raise and your SKR Angels deal flow simultaneously. Your strongest leverage is your Skyhigh-to-McAfee and Securent-to-Cisco exit narrative, which opens doors with Sequoia and Greylock partners who already know your track record. Prioritize events that put you in front of cloud security and AI-focused GPs, enterprise GTM talent, and early-stage AI founders who could become either Chatsee.ai design partners or SKR Angels portfolio companies.
