Sequoia closed its London office because European founders kept asking for partners in California.

Pat Grady, co-steward of Sequoia, explains:

1. Sequoia led Unity's Series A in 2009 and Klarna's growth round in 2010, with no office in Europe
2. Five years ago it opened London to compete locally
3. Founders met 4 partners in London, then found the right one among 15 in California
4. Partners in California didn't know if Europe was still their job
5. Now 1 London partner moves to the US, 3 leave, and the whole team covers Europe

His own data point: he spent more time in Europe before London existed.

a16z and Coatue already pulled back. Now Sequoia covers Europe from the Bay Area.

@danielnewmanUV Great talk. This correction may differ from others due to the exceptional revenue being produced. Over the medium term, the outcome will hinge on tech supply, monetisation strategies (ROI), politics and legislation and whether demand continues to absorb the capacity being built.

@ZGojcic It is a setback for the UK’s AI startup ambitions, highlighting Europe’s continuing funding gap with the US. UK/EU Governments need to support VC as a means of innovation and growth.

We’re launching Ascenix (@ycombinator F26): custom software for running senior homes. Our first customer was the retirement home we lived in for months. Now we’re growing 15% WoW across Canada and the US.

Senior homes face bottlenecks like time-consuming reporting, missed reimbursement revenue, and compliance gaps that risk fines and reputational damage. Solving each with separate tools can mean dozens of vendors, hundreds of thousands of dollars in spending, multiple logins, and siloed data.

We replace that stack with one platform tailored to each home. Teams describe what they need, and Ascenix turns their data and instructions into dashboards, reports, or automated workflows. Our reusable building blocks let us add new workflows as new bottlenecks arise, without another vendor or product.

Built a digital product over 2 years and then pivoted the whole thing! As Antoine once said - 'Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.' Great work, looks worth it @NirZicherman 👏

[Nir Zicherman @NirZicherman]

We’ve pivoted Oboe. The first version, which we spent the past two years building, didn’t work. No excuses. Here’s the full story, culminating in what comes next: an all-new Oboe, available today.

We launched Oboe with a mission to make humanity smarter. That mission is core to who we are, and it hasn’t changed. The first way we thought to achieve it was by leveraging frontier models to offer everyone personalized tutoring.

But through many iterations over the past two years, it became clear that we built the wrong product. First, we’d made strategic decisions that left us undifferentiated in the age of LLMs. Second, by focusing on utility above all else, there was little organic incentive for people to return to the platform. And most importantly, no matter how great our product was, not many people were motivated to actively learn every day.

Despite our best efforts to serve everyone on the planet, we landed on a small, loyal user base that loved a product which wasn’t growing fast enough.

So we took a step back: How else could we serve everyone on the planet and still achieve our mission?

We decided instead to focus on a motivation everyone has: to have fun. Every day, billions of people entertain themselves on their mobile devices, filling countless minutes with mindless scrolling and brainrot that doesn’t make us smarter. In many cases, it actually makes us stupider.

What if we could replace scrolling that makes us stupider with scrolling that is both fun and makes us smarter? That’s the new Oboe.

It’s a fully personalized feed of dynamically generated, interactive, anti-brainrot challenges. Every scroll is designed specifically for you, to help you get smarter in a few minutes every single day.

We’ve been blown away by usage from our thousands of beta users. The differences in engagement and retention between this and the original version are stark. The product is working. It’s already clear that this new direction taps into a universal need that none of our previous iterations did.

For all of those people out there like me who feel like doomscrolling wastes their precious time, who enjoy feeling fulfilled, and who wish there was a better alternative: this one’s for you.

We can’t wait to see what you think.

@NooksHQ lands $500M and debuts Node, an AI sales assistant that tracks deals and suggests next steps—freeing sales teams to focus on relationships. The takeaway: build AI for measurable outcomes and let people handle judgment and trust. Congrats, Nooks! https://t.co/oPyhsFoqJy
