Thank you @BarackObama for supporting Lilly Ledbetter & pay #Equality! Thanks to @PerkinsCoieLLP for having me join a panel 8 years ago so I could meet my hero! God speed Lilly

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Lilly Ledbetter never set out to be a trailblazer or a household name. She just wanted to be paid the same as a man for her hard work. But this grandmother from Alabama kept on fighting until the day I signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act into law – my first as president.

Lilly did what so many Americans before her have done: setting her sights high for herself and even higher for her children and grandchildren. Michelle and I are grateful for her advocacy and her friendship, and we send our love and prayers to her family and everyone who is continuing the fight that she began.

@kentnish @PunchbowlNews @AndrewDesiderio @bresreports I will hear you out, Andrew, but I’ve seen this before & know how it ends… not well

[Beezer Clarkson @Beezer232]

oof. loss ratios are an unfortuante reality in the venture industry.

2019 - 2021 we weren't seeing typical loss ratios for but latest @PeterJ_Walker info from @cartainc ... looks like they are coming back

Great news for Emerging VC Managers to find an experienced LP (& great partner) building capacity for the next industry leaders! Thx @SapphirePrtnrs & @CalSTRS for taking the long view.

[Beezer Clarkson @Beezer232]

1/👑 Once upon a time, today's legendary venture funds were emerging managers…

Which is why today I’m excited to share that @SapphirePrtnrs is launching a new program to invest in emerging venture managers with a sole LP, @CalSTRS, the world's largest educator-only pension fund!

Why we are excited about this next chapter👇 🧵

As part of this new program, we are taking over the management of five existing CalSTRS “New and Next Generation Manager Funds,” representing $1.4B AUM.* Collectively, we have invested in 300+ emerging managers.

Our plan going forward is to invest ~$100M/year into emerging venture managers.🙌
