Kamala Harris gets support of more than 100 VCs and tech execs in online pledge
Summary
After Donald Trump, the Republican nominee for president, gained the vocal support of a slice of the tech investing world, a large group of venture capitalists came together to back the other side. More than 100 VCs on Wednesday pledged their support to Vice President Kamala Harris, the likely Democratic nominee, as she ramps up her campaign to take on Trump in the November election. The VCs for Kamala list highlights a deepening political divide in Silicon Valley and the broader tech industry. Musks close friend and former PayPal colleague David Sacks, co-founder at Craft Ventures, also vociferously supports Trump and spoke at the Republican National Convention earlier this month. Hoffman, a longtime Democratic donor and partner at venture firm Greylock, shared a link to the pro-Harris pledge on X, the social media site owned by Musk.
