Investing in the Future with Venture Capital

Join us for a conversation with Geek Ventures VC Sarah Romanko.

We welcome builders, hackers, scholars, researchers, and lifelong learners to join us for a meetup in Austin to share ideas on how to build a fantastic future. We believe that many of the hurdles blocking technological progress are failures of will and imagination a la J. Storrs Hall and that by shifting our culture we can unlock innovation. Join us for monthly discussions on how to make that happen.
