645 Ventures 2024 Annual Meeting was an incredible milestone! We celebrated 10 years of the firm with over 130 LPs and nearly 300 attendees, including founders, VCs, and industry leaders who have been pivotal in shaping our journey as well as the industry. While our firm has been around for a decade, we were humbled by the opportunity to engage in conversations with VC leaders who have been building for over 20 years, such as Hemant Taneja (CEO and MD at General Catalyst) and Jeremy Levine (GP at Bessemer Venture Partners). We also celebrated Bill Lewis (Partner and a member of the Firm's Leadership Team Apollo Global Management, Inc.) with the firm's Cornerstone Award. A true highlight for me was interviewing Kim Lew (President and CEO of Columbia University Endowment), who shared invaluable insights into the ever-evolving LP landscape. Additionally, our colleague Vardan Gattani led a discussion on National and Global Security: Ground, Air, and Space Innovation with Brandon Tseng (Founder of Shield AI), Even Rogers (Founder of True Anomaly), and Scott Sanders (Chief Growth Officer at Forterra) were thought-provoking and timely. I also want to give a huge thank you to our team—Kelly Hardeman, Randi Jakubowitz, Pete Keenan, Stephen Lang, William Hess, Mendy Yang, and of course my co-founder Nnamdi Okike—for their hard work in putting on such a great event. Your dedication and attention to detail truly made this event one to remember. A heartfelt thank you to all our panelists, guests, and partners for making our 10-year anniversary and Annual Meeting a memorable and successful event. Here’s to many more years of growth and innovation! #645Ventures #VC #TechInnovation #10YearsStrong #AnnualMeeting #Founders
