Andrea partners with early stage B2B software and AI companies at General Catalyst, focused on pre-seed and seed stages. She loves to partner with ambitious, product-minded founders who are former operators, build community, and jam on product and GTM.

She is very founder-focused when investing at the earliest stages and is excited about companies building in applied AI, departmental software, spatial (AR/VR), marketplaces, and ecommerce.

Adam is the founder and managing director of Boost VC. Adam is a 2x entrepreneur and a 4th generation venture capitalist.

For Adam, no idea is too crazy. He dreams of building an ironman suit and leads the deals in the wildest SciFi Tech investments - exoskeletons, jetpacks, rockets... Go big or go home. The focus of Boost VC on future technology development stems from Adam Draper’s dream to create an Iron Man suit.

Ben is the son of refugee immigrants and got his start in the inaugural class at the Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre Academy for Innovation at USC. There, he founded Mira, a tech startup that became the world's leading AR lens company, attracting $20 million in venture capital from firms like Sequoia and Founders Fund before being acquired by Apple.

After four years of investing for Sequoia’s Scout Program, Ben founded Genius Ventures, a fund dedicated to backing pre-seed companies at the idea stage. He also serves on the board of the Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre Academy at USC, where his journey began.
