Happy St. Patrick’s Day everyone! Hope everyone’s having a great March. On behalf of the NextGen community, we wanted to take a moment and share that our thoughts and prayers go out this month to our colleagues who have been affected by the terrible humanitarian crisis that is ongoing in Ukraine. We hope there will be a return to peace in the region soon.

Read on for a slew of major promotions for our colleagues in venture capital and a number of new job opportunities that have recently opened up. Here’s to the start of spring everyone!

Thanks,

Shawn and the NextGen Board
