It was interesting listening to Andreas Møller’s talk on toddle's vision of fixing modern #software development! 🚀

Exciting update from our portfolio company @striseai! Marit Rødevand and her team have just secured an impressive USD 10.8M Series A 🎉

I'm super proud of our team behind @Likeminded for spotting the potential early and adding value during Strise's critical growth phase! 💪🏼

An absolute favourite of ours, @strise, has raised a large series A from an absolute favourite of ours @atomico 💚

The round is followed by a string of brilliant angels including founders and c-levels from a bunch of defining startups. Peakon, Klarna, Depop, Snap, etc. 🎉

Notes on meeting with a failed founder from our portfolio: We looked to the future together. By the end of our discussion, I had introduced him to relevant contacts for his next business, and even received warm introductions to potential investment opportunities.

@MartinGTobias @VRMink @mashadrokova @b_nicks11 @HarryStebbings @annelieajami Sure Martin! I know you have quite a big inflow, so might save you some time.

Also, I believe Vincens is open for valuable input so don’t hesitate reaching out to him.

[Vincens R. Mink @VRMink]

I am an early stage investor, and I get too many decks. So I am building an AI to evaluate them. Now I can focus on the deals match my target company. Happy to share this with others in the industry who want to beta test.

[Kasper Nygaard @kaspernygaard_]

@VRMink Nice tool @VRMink! Looking forward to an automated process for the initial screening 💪🏼

Alle måder, der uden omfordelingstvang, kan give lav- og middelklasser bedre adgang til kapitalmarkeder, og derved formuer, er ubetingede goder. At skabe velstand for alle er et godt mål. Al lovgivning som modarbejder det bør fjernes.

@SteffenFrolund @jordanbpeterson Sådan Steffen! 🙌🏼

Super impressive Jens and MarketReader team 💪🏼

[Jens Nordvig @jnordvig]

We have been showing the MarketReader technology to potential partners in recent weeks, and the AI aspect does take it to the next level.

Cool that @WSJ is picking up on this even before our official launch...

[Kasper Nygaard @kaspernygaard_]

@MartinGTobias Martin, it could be interesting to establish a connection. Our venture capital firm focuses on early-stage investments, with a particular emphasis on Scandinavian startups. However, we remain open to opportunities in various industries and regions -> https://t.co/sw6fazQqDx

@MartinGTobias Crossfit 💪🏼

[Jens Nordvig @jnordvig]

1/ VCs not investing much

2/ Banks very cautious on lending.

3/ Some private investors did too much early stage tech stuff, and now on a break.

4/ Tbills at 5pct means many are less hungry for risk

=> there will be very attractive opportunities for angels with capacity to step in here

@HarryStebbings Quite a decent distance as well what is your motivation and goal when talking about distance?

I tend to preferred intensity over distance, and get bored running above 10km..

[Kasper Nygaard @kaspernygaard_]

@MartinGTobias Motivation, skills and experience.. to they have potential to execute on the vision.
Could be: deep personal experience, founders ability to articulate the problem they are solving and how team compliments each other.

Would love your take on good generic signals to look for 👀
