Curious about where the next visual technology investment opportunities are? Meet Lux Capital’s Deena Shakir, M12’s Samir Kumar, DCVC’s Kelly Chen, and Bloomberg’s Sarah McBride and see them discuss how Gen Z doesn’t see the camera as an app, they see it as a platform; how the next world war will not be fought by people, but by AI; and so much more!
Our 7th annual LDV Vision Summit was a great success! We are so grateful, in these times, to be able to connect with all of you investors, entrepreneurs, technologists, executives, writers, and more who are as passionate about visual tech as we are. Thank you for coming together with us to examine the incredible opportunities for computer vision, machine learning, and AI to improve business and society.
