@eldsjal I disagree with Rogan on many things. But asking a platform to de-platform him and taking yourself off are 2 different things. Rogan is entitled to his views and Spotify are entitled to host him. Young is entitled to leave. But Young is wrong to want Rogan removed.

After 3 years commuting back and forth from Palo Alto to London and helping establish ADV, I can now focus on sourcing UK companies in the Valley, partnering with Valley funds for co-investment and helping our portfolio traverse the Valley ecosystem. And I get to be at home more!
We’re really excited to establish a permanent presence in the USA and announce @kteare as our first US Partner 🇺🇸 . He’ll be supporting expansion of our portfolio and partners, building on his relationships with US investors:

@paulg @gortok It is important to distinguish between “good techies” and good founders. They are not the same. Good techies are everywhere. What the Valley brings is expectation of big thinking, good execution, and the possibility of success, and filtering everything else out.

@HarryStebbings To add perspective here. This is the result of the growth investors moving lower in the stack, doing A rounds and sometimes Seed. The space for traditional venture is shrinking fast. Seed needs to be redefined to address these trends. What is seed now? What is pre-seed?
