1/ Thrilled to announce @lightspeedvp Series A round investment in @lunchclubai, the next-generation networking platform. Here's more on what makes Lunchclub so special: https://bit.ly/2GiY98q
2/ The beauty of @lunchclubai is its simplicity. You sign up and tell the service a little bit about who you are and the kinds of people you're hoping to meet. Lunchclub does the rest, using AI to identify appropriate matches and set up meetings.
3/ @lunchclubai helps entrepreneurs seek out investors, startup founders find cofounders, and growing companies locate talent. It's also about mentoring others, brainstorming with peers, and just meeting interesting people.
4/ @lunchclubai was already growing steadily before the global pandemic as a way to arrange in-person meetings. When COVID-19 made IRL meetings impossible, Lunchclub added video meetings to its toolkit. That's when it really accelerated.
5/ @lunchclubai was exactly the platform people needed at a critical time. At @lightspeedvp we believe that virtual meetings, conferences, and other remote events will be an essential part of how we conduct business moving forward.
6/ On a personal note, @lunchclubai connected me to a founder and a) I’d love to invest in her startup and b) she went to the same high school in the tiny village in England I grew up in. Terrific algorithm!
