I’m excited to announce the launch of IA Ventures. Started and lead by Roger Ehrenberg the fund will focus on early-stage companies developing breakthrough tools and technologies for managing and extracting value from Big Data. I’m excited to join a great set of advisers on the advisory board.
For much of the last decade the focus was on producing and moving data (web 1.0, networking, hardware). The next decade will be about extracting value from all this data. The amount of data being produced is accelerating and we need better tools to mine, extract, reduce and visualize these massive data sets in order to make better decisions. I’m excited to join Roger in the search for innovative companies tackling the problem of Big Data.
