On March 30th we heard updates from nine portfolio companies: CarIQ (October 2017 Dinner and July 2018 Second Look); Earth Grid (July 2022 Dinner); Kango (May 2017 Dinner and May 2018 Second Look); Loopie (September 2021 Dinner and October 2022 Second Look); Open Sesame (April 2022 Dinner); Peanut Robotics (August 2021 Dinner); RAM Medical (March 2018 Dinner); Resonado (May 2019 Dinner); and Beyond 4 formerly Your Fare (April 2017 Dinner and July 2019 Second Look). The Band has played a critical role for these companies, and I was proud of their depth and progress. Big thanks to Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati for hosting us.
