Was truly a delight and honor to cohost with Mark Miller the inaugural session of ventureLAB 's #TheValenceCollective DeepTech/HardTech CEO roundtable ! Such an important and needed initiative in this sector. The CEO function for private companies in particular embody the statement "it is lonely at the top." This initiative creates a peer mentoring network for DeepTech & HardTech CEOs to share war stories, best practices, and discover that many times the problems we face as CEOs are not unique. Thank you ventureLAB !
