The Principal Club | SF Dinner
Join us for an intimate evening hosted by Draper Associates, Future Ventures, and Rho, bringing together a highly curated group of VC Principals across the Bay Area.
We start every Principal Club gathering the same way, with a collection of questions designed to break the ice, drop the work voice, and help everyone get to know each other as people first. No pitching, no performative networking, just genuine connection from the start.
The room is intentionally small, curated, and off the record by default.

More about the hosts:
Draper Associates is an early-stage venture capital firm, funding the future first. We invest from pre-seed to Series A and remain industry-agnostic and opportunistic, while gravitating toward transformative ideas in AI, robotics, biotech, Biocures, robotics, defense, crypto, space, and deep tech.
We're especially excited by the wild, the weird, and the unconventional—world-changing ideas that seem impossible today but will be inevitable tomorrow. The firm’s founding partner is Tim Draper. Our mission is simple: Fund the people crazy enough to change the world.
Future Ventures is a $1.5B AUM deep tech VC based in Silicon Valley. The firm invests $1-10M from pre-seed to Series A. We look for companies that develop novel technological solutions to solve existential problems across energy, AI, robotics, space, agriculture, biotech etc. Future was founded in 2018 by Steve Jurvetson and Maryanna Saenko. The pair were early investors in SpaceX, Tesla, Planet, Commonwealth Fusion Systems, MosiacML, and more.
