<P CLASS="MsoNormal"><SPAN>Andy Rachleff is doubling down that the future of financial planning & investment management will be completely software-based. And that bet is paying off with Wealthfront, the largest & fastest growing financial services firm of all time. Launched at the end of 2011, Wealthfront has grown to manage over $6.5 billion in assets under management with over 130,000 clients.How? With 90% of their clients under 50, Wealthfront is laser focused on a clear market opportunity - attracting millennials who want the benefits of a financial advisor without having to talk to them.</SPAN></P>
<P CLASS="MsoNormal"><SPAN>Andy spent 25 years in venture capital, including co-founding the storied Benchmark Capital, & also teaches entrepreneurship at Stanford Graduate School of Business. In 2008, he went back to the business of building companies when he saw a once-in-a-generation opportunity to change an industry & building something new, something different, something better.</SPAN></P>
<P CLASS="MsoNormal"><SPAN>A fixture in the Valley with the track record to prove it, learn why Andy believes that product market fit is the real driver of growth & how the most successful companies are able to continually reinvent themselves.

And hear why he couldnt stay away from the day-to-day at Wealthfront, returning as CEO last fall after two years out of the c-suite.</SPAN></P>
