The talent is highly sought after.

You know, I think this is absolutely a long-term bet.

That is always our focus when we do our investing.

And I think that this is a team that's really uniquely qualified to go that distance.

So this is technical leaders from companies like Databricks, from Google DeepMind, from FAIR.

These are folks who have built large, durable companies and confronted these

security problems at an incredible scale, but marrying that cyber experience with the AI experience.

Very few people have had sort of the experience of building at a place like Google DeepMind and can now apply that to this context.

So it's a really interdisciplinary team, a highly technical team that we believe is very unique in their ability to tackle this problem.

Yeah, I think it's all of the above.

And then we hope to spend a lot of time with folks during the early days when they're really considering starting a company or the early definition of the company.

Our goal is to be along the journey for growth.

for decades, right?

The generational companies that are gonna solve these security problems will last that long.

And so we do, we try and find them early and it can be through a lot of things, but certainly one of the greatest signals is when we see incredibly talented people that we know to be excellent aggregating around an opportunity.

And I think what really emerged about this team is that they're incredibly motivated by this mission.

If you look around, all of our critical systems in society are powered by software.

Software that people can write increasingly quickly with AI.

And the other dimension that's changing is increasingly we're giving this software more autonomy.

We're giving it more access.
