If you're in VC/Tech & not thinking about Chicago... you're missing out in a huge way 💫

Last week we convened ~400 next-gen VCs, founders, operators & students at the 2nd annual @genzvcs Future of Chicago Summit w/ @WorldBizChicago and it was magical.

THIS is the future.

Turned @elonmusk into a Pixar character with #AI using @midjourney, @elevenlabs, @HeyGen_Official , then used @OpenAI's ChatGPT to write this tweet. Can we say fully autonomous humor? 😄

[TechNexus Venture Collaborative @TechNexus]

With new funds emerging, & early-stage investments increasing, growth potential is huge. @EllieRuthDavis dives into this growth, highlighting TechNexus' partnership with the @ITAtradeagency & @KaplanInstitute, and the investment in @ScreevoOfficial. 🔍 https://t.co/trsOHyBh46

[Meagan Loyst 🧚‍♀️ @meaganloyst]

So much of fundraising is about catalysts, storytelling, and manufacturing hype.

Founders, leverage VCs on your cap table to build a strategy before you go to market... i.e. 3 intros to friendlies before you officially kick off.

Curious what others are seeing these days.

I wish more people were comfortable saying they were still forming their opinion on something vs. always needing to have an answer
