AI Reasoning: Searches for ‘Steve Ahn’ investor activity (including profiles on PitchBook, Bloomberg, Foundersuite, Crunchbase, and news results) returned biographical and role information (Leadis founder, Venture Partner at Walden International, professor roles, and involvement with Lumis Games / ATLANT3D) but did not produce verifiable, dated records of his recent investments or the specific last investment date. I could not find a reliable source indicating a concrete investment date within the last several years to classify activity recency. Therefore, using the available public sources, no clear recent investment activity could be determined.
