About Brad Gerstner
Brad Gerstner built Altimeter as a life-cycle platform that can back technology companies from early stage through IPO and beyond, allowing him to partner with founders over very long arcs rather than handing them off between separate funds. He's an unusually public communicator for a VC, co-hosting BG2Pod with Bill Gurley and regularly moderating conversations with top AI and tech leaders like Sam Altman and Satya Nadella to shape his investment theses.
