Seven Stars

Thank you to the J.P. Morgan team - Ian Walsh, Jason Cao, Ted Wu - for the opportunity to share Seven Stars and our perspective on partnering with early stage founders building enduring AI companies. With 120 family business leaders and founders of emerging middle market companies at the Business Leaders Symposium in LA, I thoroughly enjoyed a focused conversation around capital and how AI-driven innovation is transforming how companies operate and compete. I look forward to sharing the stage again with this golden group of builders and investors: David Yeom, CEO of Evite (Alex) You Zhou, Founder & CEO of Yami Jamie Kim, Head of Business Development at Gallant Capital Apolo Ohno, 8x Olympic Medalist & Best-Selling Author Special thanks as well to Vivian Young, Ansie Ting, Brennon Crist, Thao Nguyen, Sam P. for bringing everyone together.

I quit Google DeepMind to build a marketing team that never stops working. Today, we're launching Pomo. Your marketing, from insight to execution, unified. Pomo watches everything happening across your market, tells you exactly what to do next (the budget shift to make, the trend to jump on, the buyer to answer), then prepares the assets for your approval. Joe Cheuk and I've raised a $4.5M Seed led by Kindred Ventures (Steve Jang), with backing from Seven Stars (Steven Lee), SV Angel (Andrea Wang), Databricks Ventures (Andrew Ferguson), Timeless(Gaurav Ahuja, Eshan Shetty), 645 Ventures (Aaron Holiday, Yasmeena Faycurry), Scott Belsky, Massimo Mascaro, Mehdi Ghissassi and Marcus Jecklin.

We raised another $106M at a $2.6B valuation since announcing our last round three weeks ago. This round was led by TCV, with participation from Zone II Ventures, Oliver Jung, Leblon Capital, Kindred Ventures, Quadri, First Order Fund, Vocal Ventures, Nordstar, GSBackers, Repeat Ventures, 8188 Capital, and many existing investors who have doubled and tripled down on us. Corgi has grown exponentially in the past couple of months, but we're only just getting started transforming one of the largest sectors in the US economy: insurance. With this new round, we're going deeper into our core while expanding into new verticals that excite us such as trucking, small business, sports, and more. We're on track to become one of the fastest growing companies by revenue and our team works hard everyday because we're producing some of the most meaningful work that is happening right now. Come help us build infrastructure that will shape industries for generations.
