Seed decisions used to be about pattern recognition. Now they’re about something harder to quantify: how quickly a founder can move from idea → system → company in an AI-native world. That shift is changing what gets funded, and why. On April 28, True Co-founder, Jon Callaghan, joins the Startup Grind Global Conference to talk through how early-stage investing actually works right now. What signals matter, what gets overlooked, and how decisions get made when the playbook is still forming. Alongside Anish Acharya (Andreessen Horowitz) and Frederique Dame (GV (Google Ventures)), moderated by Marina Temkin, CFA (TechCrunch). If you’re building, or thinking about it, this is the convo worth being in the room for. April 28 — 2:45 PM PT Mainstage, Fox Theatre (Redwood City) See you there! #Startups #SeedStage #AI #VentureCapital #Founders
