Во время пандемии молодым людям стало намного труднее проникать в технологическую индустрию. Личные встречи приостановлены, а онлайн-хабов для неформального общения не так уж много.

Салинас запустила сервер на платформе Discord под названием Gen Z Mafia (это... →

Yesterday during Disrupt 2020 I sat down with three investors who know the SaaS startup market very well, hoping to get my head around how hot things are today. Coming on the heels of the epic Snowflake IPO (more to come on that in this weekend’s newsletter), it was a great time for a chat. […]... →

But the real future of robotics and automation lies in the dull, dirty and dangerous tasks employers have difficult finding human workers to fill. Monitoring grain silos, at very least, qualifies for […]... →

Threads is not your average startup and, really, it’s not a startup anymore. It’s over 10 years old, employs more than 150 people, and successfully bridged the Series A gap in Europe closing a round of $20M back in 2018. And so far, it’s surviving 2020.  COVID-19 has put retail – and the rest of […]... →
