Building in LA

What does it really take to build and invest in Los Angeles?

Join Slauson & Co. and JPMorgan for Building in LA, an intimate, salon-style luncheon bringing together some of LA’s leading founders and investors for a candid conversation about building enduring companies in one of the country’s most dynamic and distinct startup ecosystems.

Across two conversations—one from the investor perspective and one from the founder perspective—we’ll explore what makes Los Angeles uniquely positioned for the next generation of company building, where the ecosystem still has room to grow, and how founders and investors can help shape its next chapter.

The discussion will touch on access to capital, talent, customers and infrastructure; the opportunities emerging across sectors from deep tech and energy to consumer and software; and what it takes to build and scale from LA.

Investor Panel Miki Reynolds — Slauson & Co. Dustin Rosen — Wonder Ventures Kobie Fuller — Upfront Ventures Batul Joffrey — Kapor Capital

Founder Panel Kameale Terry — ChargerHelp! Kofi Asante — Bluecore Energy Angeline Vuong — Cherub Jeff Appelbaum - Salted

Rather than a traditional conference panel, Building in LA is designed as a conversation around the table—bringing founders, investors, operators, and ecosystem leaders together to exchange perspectives on what LA does best, where the gaps remain, and what we can collectively build next.

This event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.
