What you likely need
You'd get the most out of Festival events that put you in a room with deeply technical enterprise AI founders who are actively building in data infrastructure, AI tooling, or developer platforms — where your CTO credibility at Dropbox and board seats at Modular and Glean make you the most compelling investor in the room. Roundtables and dinners focused on the operator-to-founder transition are a natural fit given your ELC talk, doubling as both brand-building and a high-leverage sourcing channel. Co-investment and syndicate-oriented gatherings with other top enterprise-focused VCs would also help you formalize deal flow outside General Catalyst's core mandate.

We will tune and customize your Founder Festival experience to make sure you get invited to the events that would be most valuable to you.
