  1. 17812065152654051110933134629142.jpg Give full transcript of this image. Here is the visible text in the image: Matt Turck (Following) Managing Director at FirstMark Visit my website 21h 2026 is a BRUTAL grind in VC. You start in Davos, freeze in Aspen, hit Upfront, survive Milken, then it’s straight to Paris for the French Open. Briefly back in NYC for the Knicks. Then, total blur: SuperReturn in Berlin, Founders Forum in London, then back stateside for the World Cup, back to Paris for Raise, Idaho for Sun Valley, quick respite in Mykonos, then the Goldman tech gauntlet, Slush in Finland, NeurIPS in freakin’ Sydney... and boom, a productive year of thought leadership and adding value is over, and you’re a wreck.
