In his 2022 memoir, “No Red Lights,” Alan explains how making the effort to meet new people, staying current on fresh ideas, and approaching the world with an optimistic and trusting frame of mind has led not only to his success, but also to maintaining a youthful mind and healthy body.  After starting his most recent investment firm at the age of 86, he now plans to live to the age of 114, and in this Blue Sky conversation, Alan Patricof explains the disciplined routines and habits he expects will get him there.

And so instead of building one individual idea or concept into a business, I thought, well, maybe I would build an investment platform to fund dozens and hopefully hundreds of other entrepreneurs to solve or build things in this white space. And then I, and my partner Alan Patricof - he has been an investor for the past 50 years, starting a large private equity firm called Apax Partners, and then Greycroft, which is a multi-billion dollar venture firm - was also in intrigued by this issue of how do we get older Americans starting businesses, people with expertise and wisdom and network and skills. And so we came together to start the fund in the Spring of 2020."   On Innovation in the Longevity Economy "But what we're more interested at Primetime, because we're an early stage investment fund is the amount of innovation going on in the space. And so just to put a bookmark in there, since we launched in summer of 2020, so almost three years ago, we've looked at 1,300 startups that would be included in the longevity economy. This includes healthcare businesses, financial service businesses, consumer and media businesses.

In Episode #136, we explore AgeTech and investing in the future of how we age. We're joined by Abby Miller Levy, Primetime Partners's Managing Partner and Co-Founder. We cover becoming an accidental investor, the compelling white space in the senior market, and ending ageism. “I hope we have a society that isn't plagued by obesity and diabetes because people are excited to live longer and are therefore making trade-offs when they're younger to enjoy a longer, healthier life.” – Abby Miller Levy EPISODE GUIDE (LINKS, QUOTES, NOTES, AND BOOKS MENTIONED) https://www.danielscrivner.com/notes/primetime-partners-abby-levy  FULL TEXT TRANSCRIPT https://www.danielscrivner.com/notes/primetime-partners-abby-levy-transcript/  CHAPTERS This episode is our definitive guide to AgeTech and investing in the future of how we age.

As you'll hear in this interview, the latest data and statistics around aging are almost too hard to believe. Here are just two data points. As of 2007, it's expected that about half of all babies born will live to be over 100 or become what are called centenarians. And by 2024, it's expected that workers aged 55 or older will represent a full 25% of the nation's workforce, with the fastest annual growth rates among those aged 65 and older. And yet, before Primetime Partners was founded by Abby Levy and venture legend Alan Patricof of Greycroft and Apax Partners fame, there were no venture firms focused solely on aging and enabling the technologies, products, and businesses we'll need to support an aging population.

Abby is the Managing Partner and Co-Founder of Primetime Partners.

CaringKind, New York City's leading expert on Alzheimer's and dementia caregiving hosts their 34th annual CaringKind Alzheimer's walk on September 25h at the Coney Island Boardwalk and on October 23th at Central Park's Naumburg Bandshell.

It was a decade after NY Giants great and Super Bowl champion Leonard Marshall retired when he first started to notice cognitive issues and a concerning change in attitude. Five years, many doctor visits and countless hours of research later, the two-time Pro Bowl defensive lineman received a diagnosis of CTE, or chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a degenerative brain disease that's common in former NFL players. He estimates taking over 30,000 blows to the head in his entire college and pro football career, which included 12 years in the NFL. “I knew what I signed up for when I started to play pro football. I knew there was a very strong chance I could end up getting a knee injury, back injury, neck injury, maybe a concussion or two.  But nowhere in that fine print did it say you could end up with chronic traumatic encephalopathy, and no one ever talked about it.” Today, Marshall is using his high profile to support CaringKind, New York City's leading expert on Alzheimer's and dementia caregiving with a forty-year history of working with community partners to help affected patients and families.  Join host Shiv Gaglani for this touching opportunity to hear a patient's perspective on a disease that is constantly in the headlines, and learn what Leonard Marshall is doing to support people facing the same reality.  Mentioned in this episode: www.caringkindnyc.org

Alan Patricof (@alanjpatricof) is a venture capital pioneer with a career spanning more than 50 years and showing no signs of slowing down. The 87-year-old started his third venture capital business nearly two years ago called Primetime Partners, wrote his first book published this year, and this week he'll be attending Burning Man, and in the fall, he'll run the New York City Marathon for the sixth time. He joins Julia La Roche on this episode for a wide-ranging conversation on life and investing. Patricof started in venture capital at 36 in 1970, before a venture capital industry existed. His Patricof & Co. Ventures Inc. was the predecessor to Apax Partners, one of the largest private equity firms today. In 2006, at 72, Patricof founded Greycroft Partners, a venture capital firm that led numerous investments in digital media companies. He has since left Greycroft to take on the founding partner and chairperson role at Primetime Partners. At Primetime Partners, Patricof, who said he plans to live until 114, is focused on what he calls the "ageless generation" — those over the age of 60 that are part of the fastest-growing part population. Since its inception two years ago, Primetime Partners has deployed capital across 25 investments with a focus on seed and early-stage investments in products, services, and experiences for the aging, including aging in place, financial security for retirees, care management, longevity health services, and consumer experiences. Primetime has also backed older entrepreneurs building companies, with 18% of its founders over 50. With his new book, "No Red Lights," Patricof hopes to encourage the older generation "not to pack it all in and go to the golf course and retire." He also hopes to share lessons with the younger generation to be open to new opportunities and live a life of curiosity.

Zibby is joined by investor, innovator, and founder of a number of companies Alan Patricof to talk about his memoir, No Red Lights. Alan tells Zibby about his plans to live until 114 and how his desire to continue trying new things regardless of his age led him to found Primetime Partner which invests in companies that target the over-sixty population. The two also discuss what inspired Alan to write about his wife's battle with Alzheimer's, the role women play in venture capitalism, and the two new things he's trying this year at 87.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/3br3L0kBookshop: https://bit.ly/3vxod6sSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.

There is a massive market that has been all but ignored by fintech founders. I am talking about the senior market. We have tens of millions of people, many with a decent net worth, with few financial services targeting them. This needs to change because the financial needs of this population are only going to become more complex and demanding over time.Our next guest on the Fintech One-on-One Podcast is Abby Levy, the co-founder and general partner at Primetime Partners. After helping her father who had been retired for 20 years she realized there is very little infrastructure in place to support older adults and she saw that as a real opportunity. So, she started a venture capital firm to help founders looking to provide products for this market.In this podcast you will learn:How her personal experience led to her becoming a venture capitalist.How she met her partner, the venture capital legend Alan Patricof.The state of the financial wellbeing of seniors in this country.Why fintech founders are not focusing enough on this massive market.The many categories where there are huge opportunities:Asset decumulation - why we need a plan to tap into liquidity of assets.Pre-retirement or "pretirement" - planning for retirement later in a career.Post-retirement - gig economy opportunities and the off-ramp for retirees.Senior-friendly credit products - we need more creative products to help seniors and their families.Care insurtech - only 7% of Americans have Long Term Care insurance, we need better options.Health-fintech crossovers - hospitals and providers are partnering with fintechs on payment schemes.Who the founders are that are coming across Abby's desk.What it will take for fintech founders to focus on the senior market.What the future might look like for fintechs focused on this population.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

Alan is almost 90 years old and a living legend in the venture capital arena. He has been a pioneer in this industry for over 50 years. Fifty years! Let that sink in for a moment. When he first started there really was no well defined industry at all. It was a bunch of mom and pop players scrambling to earn a living. Amidst this backdrop Alan helped create two hugely successful firms Greycroft and Apax Partners, which played a fundamental role in consolidating this fragmented space. Not one to sit still at the young age of 88 years old, he is now launching his third firm to much fanfare - Primetime Partners - focusing on a weirdly overlooked consumer base of 60+ year consumers. Virtually all of his former partners are investing in the new fund, signaling their confidence in both the business plan and Alan's potential to live to 100. But don't tell Alan, that will only get him mad. He's convinced he'll live to at least 114. This is to say just one thing - Alan has been around the block a few times - so it might be worth listening to his advice. His philosophy - and the name of his incredible new book - 'No Red Lights' perfectly summarizes his life philosophy. There's simply nothing he won't try. Don't believe me? Well, he's going to Burning Man this year. To receive free podcast episodes each week, subscribe at www.imperfectleaders.com

On Tuesday, we celebrated the two year anniversary of Lunch with Jamie, bringing back my first guest and father, Alan Patricof. We focused this chat on his long illustrious career in venture capital, but also discussed his upcoming book, and why at the age of 87 he plans to go to Burning Man and is training to run the NYC Marathon in November.

Meet top Clinton aide and advisor Huma Abedin. Huma Abedin has led an extraordinary life and career that has spanned positions at the White House, the Senate, and the State Department as a top aide, advisor, and close confidant to former Secretary of State, US Senator, and First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton. Although Abedin has strived to stay out of the public eye, her recent best-selling memoir Both/And shares a poignant narrative of her family background and childhood in Saudi Arabia, her tumultuous marriage to political figure Anthony Weiner, and her work for stateswoman and candidate Clinton, that led her to serve as vice-chair of Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign for President of the United States and deputy chief of staff to Clinton when she was U.S. Secretary of State, among other important roles. Finally sharing her experiences and lessons after decades as an extremely private but elite insider in the world of politics and policy, Abedin joins The Common Good for an exclusive, members-only in-person event hosted and moderated by legendary venture capitalist Alan Patricof.

The work of Sebastian Mallaby, a financial journalist and author of the new book "The Power Law," shines a light on how Silicon Valley really operates. The names you know — Zuckerberg, Jobs, Dorsey, Brin & Page — are not really the gatekeepers of the future, he argues. The future of technology rests in the hands of people you've probably never heard of, such as Arthur Rock, Alan Patricof, John Dore, Don Valentine, and Marc Andreessen. They control what companies get to start up, what technology gets to market, and what your future will be like. Like so much else, it's about following the money.

Alan Patricof is a businessman, entrepreneur and one of the American pioneers of venture capital. In the latest episode of Out Of Office, he discusses growing up on the Upper West Side in Manhattan and dipping his toes in entrepreneurship for the first time as a young child selling magazines in the neighborhood. He speaks to Rich Kleiman about starting his early career on Wall Street before the term "venture capital" was even coined and pivoting to investing professionally in the 70s. The two discuss Patricof's new book "No Red Lights," exploring why he decided to write this book now and how writing it in his 80s sends a message that regardless of age, you can still continue to live life to the fullest.  Learn more about your ad choices.

In our second episode of the Diversity Riders Podcast, Dana shares the story of her reaction upon hearing about the Diversity Rider concept and the influence it could have.

Dana shares how the Rider tied into Greycroft's existing work to expand diversity on boards, and she also discusses Whitney Wolfe Herd, the Founder & CEO of Bumble (a Greycroft portfolio company), and how Whitney and leaders like her are recognizing their unique positions to drive real change by providing access and opportunities to underrepresented investors and third party vendors.

We've all heard the U.S. population is aging, but even so, this is a pretty eye-popping statistic: 50% of people born in the U.S. in 2007 will live to be 100. Perhaps more surprising is the lack of products, services and experiences designed for older adults to help them live their "best lives." Filling that gap is the new focus for two veteran entrepreneurs and business leaders, Alan Patricof and Abby Levy, who joined forces this year to launch the investment firm Primetime Partners. As they explain to host Shiv Gaglani, they are finding plenty of founders who have ideas to serve the needs of this population -- from telehealth to support for caregivers to addressing financial issues -- who also want to serve a purpose. As Abby Levy puts it, "if we don't have a positive social impact, then we won't have succeeded either on the investing side or on the mission." Check out this episode for a fascinating glimpse into the future of senior living and what caregivers -- professional and otherwise -- should keep in mind as they interact with "the ageless generation."
