@tonimelisma @claudeai Right! Claude on Claude. Will do. Thx.

[Mika Pyhämäki @mikapyhamaki]

I'm dedicating JULY 2026 to learning Claude Code.

My goal is to build internal tools for Focus Forward Media myself instead of stacking SaaS subscriptions.

- How to get started?
- What should I build?
- What's actually valuable?

Share your POV and help me grow my business.

[Mika Pyhämäki @mikapyhamaki]

@tymofii @claudeai Thank you. Good point. That is definitely measurable.

A question that the enterprise executives didn't really anticipate: What happens when AI becomes more expensive than human employees?

Happy 250th Independence Day 🇺🇸

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

For 250 years, America has been the greatest nation on Earth — and with God’s grace, it will be for 250 more.

Happy Independence Day!

@sundarpichai @GoogleWorkspace Very creative demo! 🙌🏼🇺🇸

Most founders obsess over their product, their customers, or their brand positioning.

Almost none of them treat their own performance as a system worth designing.

Why?

[Mika Pyhämäki @mikapyhamaki]

Volkswagen plans to cut up to 100,000 jobs and end production at four plants in Germany in a significant acceleration of its cost-cutting plans as Europe’s largest carmaker seeks to counter the rapid advance of Chinese rivals. 🇩🇪 🇨🇳 It's going to be brutal.

[Mika Pyhämäki @mikapyhamaki]

Beijing now sees AI-enabled machines as a way out of the demographic trap.

Last year the China installed more industrial robots than the rest of the world put together. It also makes most of the world’s humanoids. 🇨🇳

Sounds better than mass immigration, right?

OpenAI is building the full stack:
🧠 Models
🤖 Products
🌶️ Infrastructure

[OpenAI @OpenAI]

We’ve designed and built our first AI chip: Jalapeño.

Designed from the ground up by OpenAI and brought to production with @Broadcom, Jalapeño is purpose-built for the LLM workloads powering ChatGPT, Codex, the API, and future agentic products.

Chips are foundational to the AI economy. Building our own expands our full-stack platform from products to models to infrastructure, and will help us scale intelligence, serve more people, and expand access to AI.

Brutal truth about GTM.

Summer is notoriously slow for B2B sales.

Prospects go offline, decision-makers vanish on vacation, and now the World Cup 2026 is about to pull even more attention away.

If you let your growth momentum freeze now, you might miss your goals.

The smartest founders use this quiet period to improve their sales engine.

That’s why I’m blocking every Thursday 12:00–16:00 in JULY for Free 1:1 GTM Power Hours 🔥

No BS. Just straight forward advice based on:

→ 12 years in international tech business
→ Experience of closing 100+ enterprise deals
→ Experience of coaching 100+ entrepreneurs
→ Proven GTM systems to build AI-first companies

Bring your growth playbook, sales pipeline, marketing data, or future ambitions.

We’ll unblock what’s broken and make sure you’re firing on all cylinders while everyone else is glued to the matches and still waking up in Q3.

You can also just introduce yourself and your vision, and I'll share what I’ve learned about GTM when working with companies like Salesforce, Accenture, Nokia and Winning by Design.

Fair warning: I’ll tell you what I actually think.
I normally charge 500€ for sessions like this.

Are you interested?

@europeanhorizon LOL 🇪🇺

[Mika Pyhämäki @mikapyhamaki]

@gregisenberg The biggest tech startup lie is calling MRR × 12 = ARR just to chase headlines.

Remember the first principle: Recurring revenue is the result of recurring impact.

Instead of hype strategy, try to under promise and over deliver. Thank me later✌🏼

Satellite company ICEYE 🇫🇮 has secured over €1B in new investments, pushing its valuation to €10B and placing it among Europe’s most valuable space and defence technology companies.

Iceye is the 3rd Finnish tech startup to hit this milestone in addition to Oura and Supercell.

[ICEYE @iceye_global]

Leading a new era of sovereign intelligence from space.

Anyone can sell time. Very few learn to build value. That’s the difference between earning a salary and growing a business to 1M€ ARR.
