I felt honored to speak with Patrick on @InvestLikeBest, following giants in the investing world to talk about the @adjacent, consumer subs and early-stage VC!

[Patrick OShaughnessy @patrick_oshag]

Today’s conversation is with @ncsh

While consumer investing has been less popular in the last few years, Nico has found a way to do it with great success

His method is to explore “the adjacent possible” and he’s become a deep expert on consumer subscriptions

I learned a ton

@rodfernn from Portugal to the world !

[rod @rodfernn]

We just raised a historic funding round for Portugal, backed by some of the country’s top unicorn founders. And we're now looking for the best young talent to join us.

So we built something to find them. It's called Arcus - a series of trials. No resume. No application forms. Just a terminal and a problem to solve.

The first trial is live: Ode Triunfal, with €3k in prizes. Access it through 'ssh augustalabs[dot]ai'.

More info in the comments.

We're just getting started.
