Big shoutout to @newindustrials for an epic inaugural event! Lots of excitement and now back to work! Let’s remember: this isn’t just “Re”industrialization. Rerun of the past will have same result. Reinventing industries is what lasts, so we won’t need to ‘reindustrialize’ later

[Thilo Braun @tm_braun]

Hardware is back - it's how wars are won on and off the battlefield and it's how economies thrive. Check out the post written by Sam and myself at @iendeavors on the future of hardware engineering. More to follow!

Thanks @ashwinl for the call out.

A new VC thesis on hardware published. welcome!

Founders, worth reading. This is Eric Schmidt’s firm.

Ask investors when pitching which operators they rely on to scale to mitigate this 👆. Different skills needed from software SaaS and most VC fund portfolio companies are still in early innings (Series A).

Great kickoff to the @newindustrials conference - "Decline is a choice". Congrats @aphysicist & team for putting this together in a few months

[Thilo Braun @tm_braun]

The start of a new era in aviation. Lots more coming soon. #AAM

[Pipistrel Aircraft @pipistrelEU]

Yesterday, Pipistrel's Velis Electro received its LSA FAA exemption!

🔋Fully electric and zero emissions flying, its the perfect option for trainee pilots! ✈️

@NatBullard's annual decarbonization presentation is a treasure trove. Some takeaways and thoughts. 1. Breaking Records: 2023 was the hottest year on record. September marked the first month with >1.5°C temperature anomaly (1/9)

[Thilo Braun @tm_braun]

8. I'm inherently optimistic. Technologies underpinning the energy transition are not only cleaner but often cheaper and better than the incumbents. Economics will make the energy transition inevitable. But we cannot afford to wait, we need to move faster and scale larger. (9/9)

@ConnerCurtis29 @UDOTcottonwoods @UDOTavy @UtahDOT @CHCity @sandycityutah @AltaCentral @AltaAlerts @SnowbirdAlerts Similar question - do the UTA busses get priority going into the canyon (ie. Skip the queue of waiting cars?)

What's next? @andaeroinc was spun out from @ARPAE SCALEUP program and together with @24M_Tech we are developing batteries that will enable a new era of emission-free, low-cost, ubiquitous aviation. Stay tuned for more. (4/4)

[Thilo Braun @tm_braun]

Excited to be working on enabling a new era of aviation. I have the privilege to work with @ssripad1 and @venkvis to build @andaeroinc - decarbonizing and propelling the future of aviation (1/4)

[Thilo Braun @tm_braun]

Following my time at @aeroimperial, I worked with the amazing team at @Lilium to commercialize electric VTOL aircraft. Batteries were always the elephant in the room - too heavy to make electric aviation truly viable. (3/4) https://t.co/kamrOxSTsi
