Thanks to everyone who attended #RTF24 and to Roadrunner Venture Studios for making all of it possible! We enjoyed having the opportunity to join hundreds of fellow members of the deep tech community in Albuquerque, New Mexico for a day of exploring cutting-edge advancements and emerging areas in technology. Anzu Managing Partner Whitney Haring-Smith participated in a panel that delved into the state of deep tech investing, including the importance of thinking beyond short-term trends, the increasing role government plays in venture funding, artificial intelligence, quantum computing, autonomous vehicles and more. It was great seeing Anzu portfolio companies BioFlyte, Inc., Nature's Toolbox, Inc. (NTx), Voltaiq and XGS Energy there as well.
