Creative Conviction is a platform sparking conversation around creativity, capital, and AI.
We’re Libbie and Rayouf, investors at Bessemer Venture Partners. We spend our days with founders and teams building the most creative companies in technology. This is where we share what we’re learning through interviews, writing, and gatherings that we co-host in New York.
