A few weeks ago, we kicked off the Talent x Opportunity (TxO) Fall 2023 cohort in San Francisco. The founders hit the ground running in person, already building strong connections and rapport. We continue to be amazed by the visionary entrepreneurs TxO has had the fortunate opportunity to collaborate with since launching the initiative in 2020. To date, TxO works with 45 promising companies and 68 founders, all of whom are building products and services inspired by unique cultural insights.

Since kicking off the Talent x Opportunity (TxO) Initiative, we have invested in 27 companies building products and services based on unique cultural insights. The founders we backed and continue to support have taken tremendous strides from initial ideation to accelerating their businesses by growing full-time headcount, strengthening go-to-market strategies with key partnerships and collaborations, and earning recognition for their breakthrough brands and sales.
