Super excited to announce I’ve joined @forumventures to help build out our new Venture Studio.
We have the ambitious goal of launching 12 startups over the next 18 months and are looking for passionate founders with deep domain expertise to join us.
It’s time to build 🚀
None of these are “real” innovations. This is just leveraging brand and integration moats.
Air pods is a massive biz line but they’re just mediocre headphones that seamlessly connect to your phone.
Cook is an amazing CEO but he doesn’t have an innovative bone in his body.
"Tim Cook didn't innovate!"
Products released under Tim Cook:
- Apple Watch
- Airpods
- Apple Music
- Apple TV
- iCloud
- Apple Pay
- Face ID
- Apple Silicon
- Retina Display
- Dozens of others...
Don't come at me with this idiotic take that Tim Cook's Apple didn't innovate.
The fully robotic supply chain is a bigger deal than AGI
- Robots mining, transporting, manufacturing, and programming themselves
- Robots are then building more robots without human involvement
- This means unlimited manufactured goods
The Forum Ventures Studio is investing in 2 more startups before the end of 2024 🚀
With 12 investments in the last 24 months, we’re looking to finish the year strong and invest in world-class founders for the last 2 concepts.
4 validated concepts we want to build 👇
4️⃣ Industrial Automation Revolution
The $10B PLC market is ready for disruption. We're creating hardware-agnostic programming tools for the 57% of industrial companies trapped by legacy systems.
.@forumventures is writing 100+ checks this year and we need to hire 2 positions to make that happen!
1️⃣ Venture Analyst: Connect with 100s of founders to source dealflow.
2️⃣ Platform Ops Manager: Master of systems, make our founder experience shine.
