General Catalyst gathers 480-person global team around 'AI for abundance and agency' vision
htaneja · x · 2026-11-11
General Catalyst brought its entire 480-person global team to Park City for its annual retreat, articulating the firm's North Star: AI for abundance and agency — abundance meaning scarce, expensive things become plentiful and affordable; agency meaning anyone can build and compete rather than a handful of companies deciding the future.
Partner htaneja noted the retreat coincided with the midterms, observing public anxiety over costs, jobs, and what AI means for children, and reaffirmed GC's commitment as a nonpartisan force for scaling founders toward abundance.
