CXO Event 

Generative AI in the Enterprise 

As the buzz around Generative AI increased, many members of our CXO advisory board questioned how it could be leveraged in an enterprise capacity.  Due to the inbound interest and several new generative AI venture investments Sierra Ventures has made, we decided to build an afternoon of sessions around how the F1000 can implement and leverage Generative AI. 

Supporting Our Portfolio

Building unwavering partnerships

"As a first-time founder, I couldn't have asked for a better partner than Sierra. They helped us mature operationally and navigate many thorny issues as we scaled. Their guidance, expertise, and belief in our vision not only helped us 10x our business in 18 months culminating in a successful exit but also laid a strong foundation for the business to scale to 150+ employees and 30m+ monthly active users."
