Partner 22, Events, New Media

Founded in Silicon Valley in 2009 by Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz, Andreessen Horowitz (aka a16z) is a venture capital firm that backs bold entrepreneurs building the future through technology. We are stage agnostic. We invest in seed to venture to growth-stage technology companies, across AI, bio + healthcare, consumer, crypto, enterprise, fintech, infra, and companies building toward American dynamism. a16z has $90B under management across multiple funds.

We’ve established a team that is defined by respect for the entrepreneur and the company-building process; we know what it’s like to be in the founder’s shoes. We’ve invested in companies like Waymo, Anduril, Coinbase, Databricks, Figma, Flock Safety, Loom, Roblox, and Stripe. Our team is at the forefront of new technology, helping founders and their companies impact and change the world.

The Role

New Media is a16z's thought leadership engine - home to some of the most influential voices in technology, policy, and culture. Events are a core part of how New Media shows up in the world: they deepen relationships, surface ideas, and create moments that extend the firm's reach and amplify its brand.

The Events Partner for New Media is a senior operator responsible for designing and executing a portfolio of high-impact experiences - from intimate community dinners to multi-day summits and leadership retreats. This role requires someone who can move between strategic planning and ground-level logistics without losing a step. Someone who understands that no two events are the same, and who holds themselves to the highest bar, because these experiences reflect the firm's brand, relationships, and reputation at the highest level.

The preferred location for this role is San Francisco Bay Area, CA. We will consider candidates in New York City, NY. The role will require in-office presence from time to time.

To join our team, you should be excited to:

• Design and lead a suite of high-impact experiences, from intimate community dinners to multi-day summits and leadership retreats - bringing creative vision and a constant push to elevate the guest experience; this is not a rinse-and-repeat role
• Partner directly with senior executives, GPs, and prominent external figures to shape experiences that reflect the firm's brand and deepen its most important relationships
• Own all operational logistics including venue sourcing, vendor negotiation, contract management, and on-site production for both in-person and virtual formats
• Build and manage event communications campaigns; own the outreach calendar, track registrat
