As many of you know I took a new role @humcapital at the beginning of the summer. Our goal is to streamline the funding journey. If you are a leader at a startup looking for funding, I'd be interested in hearing what your biggest pain point is so far. Comment below!

[Hum Capital @humcapital]

Today, we’re officially turning the tables on the traditional fundraising process.

We’re building a world where potential is unconstrained by access to capital—with the world’s only intelligent capital market.

Welcome to a better way to fund your growth. https://t.co/m497agUVJp

I can't say enough about the importance of video in a well-rounded web #UX strategy. If you want to drive conversions, create some thoughtful video content that you can include on your website. https://t.co/boMyZH8Xlp

Really cool to see @Polaroid rethinking their #UXDesign for their latest instant camera. Great example of how to streamline a product and make it easy to travel with.

I'm a big believer in the power of empathy, and I love this idea of "personal resonance" from @rneogy. When we can truly resonate with our teams, we make them feel that much more supported. #LeadershipTips https://t.co/NW0bTVjUMI

Women made up over half of all jobs lost in 2020, but as STEM roles continue to grow, I think we can bridge that gap. Thanks for sharing, @joanmichelson. #WomenInSTEM

One of the great things about smart supply chain adoption is that it opens doors to more customization and personalization than ever before. And when leveraged right, those capabilities can be a huge boon to your #UX. https://t.co/iRy0tMHxQk

Right? Who would've thought these kinds of apps would become so essential? https://t.co/BKSBviKITm

“Why do I need an app for food!?”... 2 yrs later... #UX

Honestly, a great application for #AR doesn't have to be the shiniest or most fun. I think this idea from @apple is a great example of functionality and practicality. #UX https://t.co/vNaoaeTc4L

This is fascinating to think about. I feel like everyone I know has experienced video call fatigue in some form, but it totally makes sense that the platform's self-mirroring feature affects women more so than men. #UX https://t.co/AVR2FRVNah

@ScottMarkovits @firstround It's always comforting to read these articles to remind yourself and to learn new tactics on how to deal with these issues. Thanks for the share, @ScottMarkovits. It was useful.

@KeshYuval This is such a fascinating read and take on UX! Thanks for sharing, Yuval.

The @Gooten family has done it again! I couldn't be prouder to be on this team. #Inc5000Regionals @Inc5000

I'm especially interested in seeing how #AR and #VR can shake things up and reimagine how products are designed in this space. @uctodaynews #ProductDesign https://t.co/II3exfrj2h

Thanks for reporting, @owenrdhughes. I hope the US can move toward a universal right to repair soon. #ProductDesign https://t.co/uM4VhxGgVv

The decision to build Clubhouse on a foundation of audio content was a really smart #UX choice. Audio is inherently a more intimate medium than text or picture, and in today's environment, people are craving that connection more than ever. @fastcompany https://t.co/VKDDZffnad

As our CEO at @Gooten, @thebrianrainey says, the future of #fashion is #PrintOnDemand. From moving brands closer to a circular business model to helping them stay on top of trends without huge overhead costs, the advantages of PoD are huge. https://t.co/zdFT9MmJcW

@CoryLebson @uxplanet Excellent share on the skills that are most demand for UX researchers - having hands-on experience is one of the more important skills in job postings.

@katicaroy @davidgsmithphd @HarvardBiz No problem, @katicaroy - it was a great read!

[Krista McDonald @_KristaMcDonald]

Thank you for this, @katicaroy and @davidgsmithphd. So often businesses view #GenderEquity with zero-sum bias, and that inhibits progress. But it doesn't have to be that way. #WomenInLeadership https://t.co/M9nn5SUQ4g
