    Why Are We Here? Why Did We Raise $15B?

    Great video - it's time to build.

    the thing i like most about a16z is that they're somehow way more optimistic than i am, personally and institutionally. and they put a ton of resources to work behind that optimism. + putting @david__booth @eriktorenberg @VirtualElena & @Alex_Danco on one team is almost unfair.

    We raised $15B for the same reason we've always been here: to give the most ambitious builders a real shot at shaping the future. Fresh dry powder across infra, apps, American Dynamism, bio, and growth. It's time to build.

    There is *so* much to write about the insane visual design and brand choices that a16z has made over the last few years. But perhaps the most telling one is that in a blog post extolling the importance of America for their new $15b funds, they chose an image of Mount Everest. [im…

    a16z just announced their newest fund - $15 billion! I had @bhorowitz on Uncapped to discuss how they run the firm, how he thinks about venture talent, a16z's overall investment approach, deploying capital at scale, media, and more. He's easily one of the most impressive people […

    @packyM I'm biased but I think this is your best company profile, and IMO the best one about a16z in its history.

    legendary 2018 email. Databricks was then valued at $1b, @alighodsi was selling a candidate on the 10x opportunity from there. @bhorowitz: you're underselling the opportunity. Databricks is going to be 10x Oracle. That's $2T, not $10b. [image]
