Megan Holston-Alexander is a Partner at Andreessen Horowitz and the Head of the Cultural Leadership Fund (CLF) - Silicon Valley's first venture capital fund composed exclusively of Black cultural leaders and organizations committed to Black wealth generation. A Montgomery, Alabama native who grew up in the cradle of the Civil Rights Movement, she studied sociology at Clark Atlanta University, earned an MA from University of Houston, and an MBA from Stanford (where she relaunched the Black Business Conference after a decade-long absence).

At CLF, she has helped deploy capital into 300+ startups across consumer, crypto, fintech, healthcare, and enterprise while connecting athletes, entertainers, and executives to technology's early cap tables - all while donating 100% of CLF's management fees and carry to nonprofits that build the next generation of Black technologists.
