Andreessen Horowitz, the $43 billion venture capital giant, has closed its Miami Beach office two years after opening it. The closure comes in the wake of the crypto meltdown and a significant decline in venture capital funding to Miami-based companies. Sources indicate that the office was shut in May because staff were not using it enough. Miami's ambitions of becoming a tech hub have been dampened, with VC funding in Q2 2024 amounting to only $400 million, a stark contrast to the $5.5 billion collected in 2022. The implosion of Sam Bankman-Fried's FTX shortly after the office's opening further contributed to the downturn. The company cut short its lease by about three years.
