The future of space demands a new approach to insurance.

Founder & CEO Yuk Chi Chan tells @axios there's a "need to modernize the way that insurance is done in space, so that we can modernize the way that finance and capital can participate in space."

Huge news!

We're joining forces with @ProjectOmegaHQ to explore how radioactive isotopes could keep satellites in orbit longer, insure billions in space assets, and prevent costly losses in space.

@axios' @TomNovelly has the latest.

[EU–INC @euinc_petition]

Europe’s founders need a European standard to compete globally from day one.

Europe’s leaders committed to delivering one. But their teams are negotiating away the very things that make it one.

There is still time to change course if Europe's Heads of State step in now.

From AI doom-ism to AI excitement, @bogdaniordache opened the @how_to_web’s second day with a question for Dragoș @dStanca (Ethical Media Alliance) and @radumagdin (Global Analyst & Strategist): “Why do we need to pace AI development? And is that even possible?!”

[Underline Ventures @UnderlineVC]

Last week, we were happy to attend and support the Investors Summit from @how_to_web’s Day 0, the flagship event bringing together investors from across the region for a day.

[Underline Ventures @UnderlineVC]

[Underline Ventures @UnderlineVC]

“Why do we need to pace AI development? And is that even possible?” @bogdaniordache tried to find out the answer to these questions with Dragoș Stanca (Ethical Media Alliance) and Radu Magdin (Smartlink Communications).

[Underline Ventures @UnderlineVC]
