💼 It was Awesome to have attended the UBS  Venture Capital (VC) Summit!

I had the opportunity to participate in the UBS VC Summit on January 14–15, 2026, an engaging event focused on the latest trends and insights shaping the venture capital landscape. The summit brought together industry leaders, top investors, and innovative founders to discuss emerging opportunities, challenges, and the future of investment.

Key takeaways for me included:
• Actionable insights on early-stage investing strategies
• Trends influencing deal flow and valuation dynamics across sectors
• The value of collaboration and diverse perspectives in driving innovation

It was great to see with new and old friends who are passionate about fostering scalable, impact-driven ventures.

An incredible two-day event hosted by the Cayman Islands Government  Cayman Summit in Georgetown.

The program brought together an extraordinary mix of global leadership and innovation—from former political powerhouses who shaped national policy, including Canadian PM Stephen Harper and UK PM Boris Johnson, to influential business leaders across technology, consumer, and sports sectors.

Insightful conversations, diverse perspectives, and meaningful connections made this a truly standout experience. A must-attend event in the years ahead.

Thank you to Sue Nickason, Bill Barhydt , Marissa Kim , and Chris Kelly for curating such an exceptional journey.

Great catching up with my old friend @ George Blumenthal , former Chancellor of University of California, Santa Cruz , after nearly five years.

Post-COVID, timelines feel like a blur—but it really had been that long since we last connected.

It’s always grounding (and joyful) to stay in touch with longtime friends like George. Those relationships matter more with time.

George and I first met almost two decades ago when we were both involved with SVLG. Leaders like Carl Guardino then, and now Ahmad Thomas , have done an incredible job fostering and sustaining strong bonds among Silicon Valley leaders over the years.
