What will your tombstone say? If you don’t like it, change it. Startup founders, entrepreneurs, and business owners, always focus your building to leave behind something you’re proud of. This is from episode 49 of the Startup Ignition Podcast featuring @blakemod of @Pelion_VP.

Whenever Redo gets to work with another great Utah brand I get especially stoked. Kizik is a company I've looked up to for a long time. I think what Jason Lee has built from an ops standpoint is second to none. Getting to work with brands you've looked up to and been a long time customer of is the ultimate privilege. Special bonus when they're building in Utah.

We’re excited to announce that we've raised a $60M Series B to help teams focus on building and shipping with AI instead of endlessly reviewing! This round was led by Scale Venture Partners, with participation by NVentures (NVIDIA's venture capital arm).

We're announcing fund 8. $500M to invest in early stage startups. I've gotten to see both sides of Pelion. As part of the team, we're obsessed with building Utah and our ecosystem. The partners and firm as a whole are full of some of the kindest people I've ever met.

Episode 14! I have recency bias but this was probably the most fun convo we’ve had this year. @jaltma just gets it. There are lessons you only learn by walking the walk. And Jack has. Hope you enjoy the convo as much as @thogge and I did.

Redo is coming out of stealth today. With it comes several announcements I’ve been waiting for two years to talk about. There are 3 thoughts that I’d love to share. 1. Taylor Brown is one of the most inspiring founders I have ever worked with.

Few can offer as much value to founders - no one builds trust like tyler - no one cares as much as tyler - no one will get as in the trenches as tyler - no one will tell you the truth like tyler Win for @Pelion_VP, win for @thogge and win for the founders he will invest in
