Created @govarena.

[Ryan Nowicki Stewart @rywicks]

Our team at @pennant_ai is building the Corporate Governance OS for the next age of public markets. We're proud and incredibly excited to be launching with @ycombinator today.

We know this market and the pain points we are solving for firsthand, and we are thrilled to be defining a new way forward.

Lots of hard work to get here and plenty more ahead, grateful to be on this journey with @0xtotaylor!

If you touch proxy voting, shareholder activism or corporate governance, and want to shake things up, let's talk.

@ericries Other leadership books for founders only let you get to third base.

@sahildotcom @gamgeevetmed Sorry to hear it Sahil, an all too familiar story and a crushing one I relate to. All the more reason why it’s been so cool to have a (small) front row seat to see @paul_conyngham and the @gamgeevetmed grinding this summer to change that! Congrats and rooting

[Ryan Nowicki Stewart @rywicks]

@virattt @UseCorgi Epic, @findatasets pushing to new heights daily, try to keep up with the production pace folks.

[Ryan Nowicki Stewart @rywicks]

@paul_conyngham @foundersfund All those Hogpatch sessions paying off, can personally attest to this guy’s grinding, congratulations and onwards!

Cohort 002 was a game-changing and perspective-shaping experience for me in building @pennant_ai .
If you want to build with people doing category-defining things at the cutting edge, this is for you.

Oh, and learning on-site from world-class FDEs and product leaders is pretty cool too.

Thank you @PalantirTech
