Meet @addielerner, founder of @avidvc

A proud Jewish woman and Chabad alumna, Addie has built a $165 million venture capital firm rooted in something bigger than just returns.

I sat down with Addie to discuss the values behind her fund and how her Jewish upbringing shaped the way she invests and builds relationships.

One value she emphasized above all: integrity. It’s central to her firm and one of the most important qualities she looks for in the founders she backs.

But what I found most inspiring was learning that a significant portion of her LPs are charitable organizations.

Every day, Addie goes to work knowing that the returns she generates help fund incredible causes and make a meaningful impact beyond the world of venture capital.

Truly inspiring.

Fragment is automating commerce.

We think there are millions of businesses that haven't been invented yet. Not because folks lack imagination, but because it's too hard to build the financial systems that run them. Fragment removes that constraint.

Today, people run companies. With Fragment, they'll run on their own.

Today, we're announcing @thatch_ai raised a $108M Series C at a $1B valuation from @thegp, @IndexVentures, @generalcatalyst, @a16z.

The idea we're betting on: healthcare serves whoever controls the dollar. For 80 years that's been the employer. We think it should be you.

Employers typically choose one health plan for everyone. We think there's a better model: give people a health budget and let them choose the insurance and care that fits their life. That is the idea behind Thatch.

ARR has grown nearly 7x in the last twelve months, and more than 5,000 employers now use Thatch. None of this happens without our team, or without the employers who believe that their people know what their families need better than they ever could.

We're building a healthcare system people love by changing how we fund it.
