"London is one of the greatest cities in the world, and outside SF the best place to come and build an AI company"
@MattEvantic, former @sequoia partner, and now running his own firm @EvanticCapital, on why London is a FANTASTIC place to live and build.
Great stuff with @TomMackenzieTV

We @sequoia are leading @tryprofound's Series B.
Search is shifting from blue links to AI answers, and companies need to win on the AI stage where decisions are now being made. Profound gives marketers the superpower to do exactly that, from monitoring and analytics to creating content and executing campaigns, giving each marketer the capabilities of an agency.
Excited to partner with @thejamescad, @dbabbs, and the team as they build the marketing command center for the AI era.
Modern AI is confined to the digital world.
At Skild AI, we are building towards AGI for the real world, unconstrained by robot type or task — a single, omni-bodied brain. Today, we are sharing our journey, starting with early milestones, with more to come in the weeks ahead.
Our Mission: Artificial General Intelligence grounded in the physical world.
We believe AGI that can truly understand and reason in the real world can only be built through grounding in the physical world.
Our Vision: Any robot, Any task, One brain.
We tackle robotics in its full generality – building a continually improving, omni-bodied brain that can control any hardware for any task.
Who are we? A passionate group of scientists & engineers driven by our shared vision.
We have been researching AI and robotics for more than a decade. Our team includes pioneers of self-supervised learning, curiosity-driven exploration, end-to-end sim2real for visual locomotion, dexterous manipulation, learning from human videos, robot parkour, and many more. Many of these works have won awards at top-tier AI and Robotics conferences. Our team has also built production-ready systems at Anduril, Tesla, Nvidia, Meta, Kitty Hawk, Google, Everyday Robotics, and Amazon.
Join us in our mission to build the robot brains of tomorrow.
For over 50 years @sequoia has partnered with visionary entrepreneurs.
Twice a year we gather our early stage founders and run Arc, our company-building program for Sequoia’s pre-seed and seed stage startups. 1/5
I typically don’t post about my political views and prefer to focus on topics where I can add to the conversation, like technology and entrepreneurship. On this occasion, I feel compelled to share some of my thoughts on Germany.
As a founder, you’ll face a handful of critical decisions each year that have an outsized impact on your company over the long-term. Widening your aperture is the key to making the right choice. Don’t simply accept the options presented. Push for more. https://t.co/ahUL71E6Is

We’ve @Sequoia been hearing a lot about autonomous agents, so @cornelius_menke@stephzhan and I decided to take a 👀 for ourselves to separate the hype from reality and get a glimpse of what might come next:
