Jeb Bush Meets with Major League Silicon Valley Players

Venture capitalist Ron Conway attended a Jeb Bush fundraiser at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in San Francisco today, entering through the underground parking garage in an apparent bid to avoid reporters, reports The Intercept.

Conway’s venture capital firm benefited greatly from early investments in tech giants such as Google, Facebook, Twitter and PayPal.

In February, Bush’s Right to Rise also formed a 501(c)(4) issue advocacy wing, which, like a Super PAC, can raise and spend unlimited amounts of money — but unlike a Super PAC, never has to reveal donor names.

According to TI, shortly before the event began, Salesforce chief executive Marc Benioff exited the hotel to tell reporters that he had discussed Indiana’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act with Bush.
