About Event

Join Lisa Calhoun, Founder & Managing Partner of Valor.VC and Gary Peat, General Partner of Valor.VC.

AI investing is not a trend. It is a high-volatility, asymmetric opportunity cycle — and it will reward discipline as much as conviction.

Celebrating our 10th anniversary as a local, leading venture capital firm, Valor has backed multiple AI companies across Tennessee at the first round — from VisaLaw in Memphis to Acuity in Nashville to UpDraft in Chattanooga. Each operates in different verticals, yet navigates the same question: how to separate durable signal from speculative noise in AI?

How do you underwrite AI companies when the cost curves, talent dynamics, and distribution models are shifting quarterly?

How does Valor use AI— in diligence, portfolio construction, and network activation?

Join Valor founder Lisa Calhoun and General Partner Gary Peat for a candid investor discussion on how to navigate the boom-and-bust dynamics of AI with discipline, edge, and courage. You'll get real insights into our own AI-augmented venture capital firm and its growing Tennessee portfolio.

Hosted by Baker Donelson.
