At Village Global, we’re honored to be backed by some of the world’s most successful entrepreneurs — the “luminary” LPs whose personal capital, brands, and time power the Village network.

Recently, at a gathering we call The Grove, we brought together several of our luminaries with a few dozen of the next wave of industry titans for a series of intimate conversations about how to scale world-changing businesses.

It was an incredibly energizing experience. Here are some photos from the event:

Diane Greene (Alphabet/VMWare), Ryan Petersen (Flexport)

Kristen Dumont (Machine Zone), Reid Hoffman (LinkedIn), Satya Nadella (Microsoft)
Tony Xu (DoorDash), Eric Schmidt (Alphabet), Reshma Shetty (Ginkgo Bioworks)
Jason Gardner (Marqeta), Matt Oppenheimer (Remitly), Satya Nadella (Microsoft), Chris Urmson (Aurora)
Katrina Lake (Stitch Fix), Mark Pincus (Zynga)

Thanks to Microsoft and SVB for their support of this event.
