Crypto & AI: Shaping the Next Decade of Tech
Join us for an evening at the Cohere AI office in San Francisco on Tuesday, September 30th, where Teresa Grandia, Executive Research Partner at Cohere Labs and former Head of Business Operations at Paradigm, will sit down with Naz Kabbani for a candid fireside conversation.
Naz Kabbani brings a unique experience as an Investor at BECO Capital ($900M AUM, the largest VC fund in the Middle East) and from working on Special Projects with Fred Ehrsam, co-founder of Coinbase and Paradigm ($12B+ AUM). He has first-hand witnessed how a country’s governing and financial systems can be thwarted by an underground crypto movement in Lebanon, and is now bringing that global expertise to building Alora, an AI-powered platform reshaping how we learn and consume media.
Together, Teresa and Naz will explore:
The evolving landscape of crypto, AI, and venture capital
Lessons learned from investing across global markets
Behind-the-scenes stories from working with top investors and founders
Building Alora and the future of AI-powered discovery
What’s next for startups, crypto, and the builders shaping the future
