🤖 AI Activity Report
Status: low-active
AI Reasoning: Search results show Avadis (Avie) Tevanian associated with Elevation Partners and NextEquity Partners; notable past investments include Facebook and BioWare/Pandemic Studios. I was unable to find any public record of an investment by him within the last 12 months (no investment activity dated after October 1, 2024). The most recent fund-related mention is NextEquity Fund II closing in May 2023, and no portfolio investment by Tevanian was found in 2024-2025. Therefore the last known investment is older than 12 months.
