Ep 009 - Patrick Chung, General Partner at Xfund

Ready to hear some of the best VC stories? 🤯

This episode of “New to Venture” perfectly encapsulates the very reason I created this podcast. In episode 009, Patrick Chung, General Partner at Xfund, shares some crazy stories from investing in Sam Altman, meeting the Prince of Wales, and seeing a legendary VC investor jump into a pool with a full suit on. Patrick is as sharp as a tack, extremely kind, super fun, and a fantastic role model. I’m so excited to share this with you all!

Here are just a few of his crazy accomplishments:

- Obtained a joint JD/MBA from Harvard and MSc from Oxford 📖

- Youngest elected partner at New Enterprise Associates (NEA) 🌱
