AI Reasoning: Found evidence of investments: Crunchbase lists Stephen Block as Director at myLAB Box (start Jun 2015) and Kitterly (start Jun 2016). No more recent specific funding/announcement dates were found indicating investments after those board start dates; the latest identified investment-related activity is his director role at Kitterly starting June 2016 and at myLAB Box June 2015. The most recent concrete investment/announced funding found is ElderSense (announced Feb 3, 2014) on Crunchbase, but director start dates for portfolio companies indicate later involvement through 2016. Given no verifiable investment occurrences within the past 6 months but some activity within the 6-12 month window is not evidenced; however, presence of ongoing director roles suggests activity within 12 months but not within 6 months, so assign the ‘active’ tag.

Low Activity – Only known angel investments more than 12 months ago.

Active – Known angel investments between the last 12 and 6 months.

Very Active – Known angel investments in the last 6 months.
