Lars Dalgaard

Invest from Dalgaard Family office. Do not take board seats any more. Prefer to help CEO+team 1:1.

2005 - Current

After being lucky to invest and help management at the top tech performers before and at A16Z, we now have the luxury of investing in what I believe can transform environmental waste, can free the human spirit, real estate and art, a few funds, and the occasional exceptional CEO of a tech company.
