The documents show that the United Kingdom has attracted A16Z for a period of five years

In 2023, the A16Z Checkle office in London launched, considering the encryption environment in the United States under Biden’s leadership at the time as unclean and UK more flexible to work with it. But the progress of encryption has been slow in the UK and now the new Labor Party government seems less focused on it. So A16z’s motivation has grown to continue her office in London, as she told Sifted sources.
