Too many VCs trying to be nice and popular instead of debating entrepreneurs to be as great as they can be. Push them some beyond their limits of comfort to think harder and bigger or surface the bad news earlier and take action early! VCs can add value but most prefer politeness

Exactly why I say 90% of VCs add no value. A few of us do work 80 hrs per week and enable new things to be done that might not get done otherwise, like fusion, public transit ... but more agree than not with you. It's why in 40 yrs I've never called myself a venture capitalist.

This a rare opportunity to join the journey of an iconic Global company through their first and only @Crowdcube campaign, @clue
So far, nearly 90% of Clue investors are women! Equally inspiring, nearly 50% are under 30! 🤯

The danger is that if we invest too much in developing Al and too little in developing human consciousness, the very sophisticated artificial intelligence of computers might only serve to empower the natural stupidity of humans.

Thank you @SlushHQ for another special event! Talked climate tech on stage with @sclarsic, @davidhelgason, @sofiahmich. Hosted a climate tech meetup in a greenhouse. @sarakemppainen launched @reprogrants. And went for a few swims in the freezing Baltic Sea after sauna 🧖🥶😁

I'm incredibly proud that Front raised its series D and wrote a few thoughts about it. Not the easiest environment to raise in, but great outcome. Thanks to everyone who's been part of the journey, and welcome @salesforce, @BatteryVentures & @jenntejada 🙂 front.com/blog/announcing-se…

Very exciting news coming from @Circulor1 in our portfolio! This is a space and a company I'm particularly bullish on. The team is laser focused, the need for supply chain transparency is acute and they are well ahead of competition. Keep pushing!
28 Jun 2022
Our portfolio company @Circulor1 just announced they raised another 25m$ to fuel their growth.
They bring transparency and traceability to complex supply chains, and help large companies like BHP or Volvo reduce emissions and uphold ESG standards.

Personal brand = the "promise of the experience" when interacting with you as an investor:
✅How do you treat people?
✅What are you known for?
✅What can founders learn from you?
@deenashakir @ChrisLyons @ErinMeyerINSEAD @hayleybay @rsohoni & more join us this week to discuss!

Funding into women's health companies was up 2x in 2021 from 2020. The industry is booming — but it’s also playing catch up after being underserved for FAR too long. forbes.com/sites/annefield/2…

Board diversity benefits everyone -- management, shareholders, clients and consumers -- while closing the wealth gap. 2021 showed progress, but 2022 needs to demonstrate acceleration. Thanks @mariaaspan for covering such an important topic. fortune.com/2021/12/08/was-2…

I'm expecting a baby, due next week. Today is my last day at Ada Ventures before 👶
I regularly feel unbelievably grateful to my partner in Ada Ventures, Matt, but today especially so.
He has set me & Ada up for success in taking time away for this next chapter.🙏 @Penhelios
