“The tragedy helped me become as clear as I’ve ever been about what matters.” - Brian GarrettBrian Garrett is the Co-Founder and Managing Director of Crosscut, one of Los Angeles’ longest-standing early-stage venture capital firms. In this episode of Tech Scenes, Jeff Martin joins Brian for a drive through Pacific Palisades—past the neighborhood where Brian grew up, the home his family lost in the fire, and the community he is now helping rebuild.The conversation explores two forms of rebuilding: restoring a community after devastating loss and reinventing a venture firm for the next era of innovation.Brian shares how Crosscut evolved from its original mission of catalyzing Southern California’s technology ecosystem into a frontier-tech investment firm focused on energy and power, space and defense, advanced manufacturing, advanced materials, robotics, and resilient supply chains.He explains why the next wave of value creation will be driven by “AI-powered, bits-enabled atoms,” why Southern California is uniquely positioned to lead it, and what distinguishes the deeply mission-driven founders building mission-critical companies.Brian also shares the personal story of losing his family home in the Palisades fire, the realities residents face as they attempt to return, and his vision for Palisades Towne Hall—a nonprofit community gathering place designed to help residents reconnect, recover, and rebuild together.This is a conversation about frontier technology, resilience, community, leadership, and the clarity that can emerge from unimaginable loss.CHAPTERS00:00 Episode preview01:47 Touring the Palisades after the fire02:52 How Crosscut began in 200804:29 Why Brian went all-in on frontier technology06:14 From software to “AI-driven, bits-enabled atoms”07:17 Insurance and the difficult road to rebuilding08:49 Brian’s roots in Pacific Palisades11:23 The vision for Palisades Towne Hall16:04 Displacement and the loss of community services18:24 Can frontier technology help prevent the next wildfire?19:53 Reinventing Crosscut around frontier tech22:30 Directed energy, autonomous warfare, and energy security25:15 What makes frontier-tech founders different27:19 Mission-critical companies and the risks of rebuilding33:44 The day Brian and his family lost their home37:05 Resilience, family, and redefining what matters40:09 Community, clarity, and learning to ask for helpLEARN MORE ABOUT BRIAN AND CROSSCUTBrian Garrett and the Crosscut team: https://crosscut.vc/team/Crosscut: https://crosscut.vc/SUPPORT PALISADES TOWNE HALLHelp create a nonprofit gathering place where Palisades residents can reconnect, share resources, and rebuild together.
