What actually makes an AI company durable today?
@marloncnichols joined the Durable Tech podcast with @yanivbernstein for a conversation on the future of AI, venture, and what separates lasting companies from the rest.
From why software alone is no longer a moat to how AI-native companies will win long term, this episode is packed with insight for founders, operators, and investors building in today’s market.

More devices use GPS than the internet. Soon, there will be more GPS devices than people. And yet, the system powering all of it hasn’t meaningfully evolved in over 50 years.
That’s the opportunity. @xonaspace just announced a $170M Series C to deploy its Pulsar system and scale satellite manufacturing building the next generation of global navigation infrastructure.
From autonomy to defense to global connectivity, this will touch nearly every system we rely on. Proud to have backed Xona since 2021. Led by our General Partner @mpalank101 .

Most VCs in the ZIRP era chased hype. Our General Managing Partner @marloncnichols stayed disciplined.
Now they’re gone. He’s still building. Marlon manages $600M+ backing what others overlook, from Gimlet to Africa before it was “obvious.”
His story started long before venture, watching his mom turn nothing into something. That mindset still drives how he invests today. No shortcuts. Just reps.
Now focused on what’s next: energy, AI infrastructure, and physical AI.

At the Kauffman Fellows Global Summit and 30th Anniversary in London, MaC Venture Capital partnered with Rodney Appiah and Cornerstone VC to host a special gathering of 40 Black GPs from across the U.S., U.K., and EU.
Our event, “Two Sides, One Table,” took place at the iconic Bacchanalia in Mayfair with a shared mission: to strengthen cross-continent deal flow, collaboration, and community among Black fund managers.
The energy in the room was incredible, and the evening was a success on every level. Check out the recap video—and relive the moments through the photo gallery below.
Special thank you to the Kauffman Fellows, Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, and HSBC Innovation Banking for making the event possible.
