What you likely need
You're a rare operator with genuine exit credibility — you took Altera through an $8.75B Silver Lake deal — but your investment and board activity isn't yet visible enough to match your stature. Festival events that put you in rooms with active AI/semiconductor investors and conference organizers will help you formalize your thesis, surface your VSORA and angel work publicly, and accelerate the 2–3 board roles that would make your portfolio legible. The highest-leverage gatherings for you right now are small, senior, and squarely at the intersection of AI infrastructure and deep-tech investing.
