We were honored to host Christie's for a preview exhibition and panel for Gen One, the late Paul Allen's collection of computing history, before it leaves Seattle for charity via auction in New York. Each piece played a central role in shaping technology, as well as the city of Seattle, as we know it today, including Paul Allen's personal Compaq 286 microcomputer, an Apple 1, and Albert Einstein's letter to President Roosevelt on the responsibility and risk of an atomic future. A special shoutout to our panel participants Ed Lazowska, Rob Short, Pete Higgins, and our Greg Gottesman who mediated the discussion! Geoff EntressVivek LadsariyaJulie SandlerPalvi MehtaT. A.

"Same day same outfit?!" Great day across two great events: First, I loved speaking with moderator extraordinaire Natalie Steck at the SVB/First Citizens Bank "Meet the VC" at the Columbia Tower Club, discussing the venture landscape, PSL Ventures key investment themes in 2024, investing in underrepresented founders across the PNW tech ecosystem at Pioneer Square Labs, and state-wide education policy as it feeds the local innovation ecosystem. Thanks to the SVB team, sponsors (Perkins Coie LLP, Escalon), and the Seattle founder community for coming together to create such a great event! Then, one block west, I got to spend the evening with pals Oren Etzioni, Maria Karaivanova, and Lucas Nivon debating the future of AI innovation at the Harvard Club of Seattle Annual Dinner at The Rainier Club. Many thanks for having us, Harvard Club of Seattle + Kelly Charlton. Super energizing to spend quality time with so many friends and leaders in this wonderful community. Thanks again, all!
