Sriram Krishnan, a partner at Andreessen Horowitz, is leaving the firm.

Sriram Krishnan, a general partner at Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), is leaving the venture capital firm after four years.

Krishnan, in a post on X said, “After 4 years at a16z, I’m leaving the firm at the end of the year to start a new adventure! What’s next? I’ll have more on that in a bit but it’s obvious we are living through a unique moment in history. I’m going to be jumping all into something I’ve wanted to spend my energy on. More on that in the coming months,”.

“For the moment though I want to talk about a16z since this has been the best part of my career. Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz have created not just one of the great venture capital firms but what I believe will be seen as one of the great American institutions. It has been the greatest privilege of my career to be a part of it and learn from them. I’ll dearly miss all the great people I got to work with over the last four years here,” he added.
