@bharatvasan We may have to discuss hazard pay if this continues.

A moderator is not necessarily supposed to be moderate. This will be a fun panel!

Vegas, baby! Looking forward to dishing about the future of food at #CES2024 -- my 14th CES. Also can't wait for @michaelwolf's epic cocktail event -- the best party during my fave trade show. DM me if you want to meet up.

[Rachel Konrad @rachelkonrad]

Nice scoop from the scoop master @michaelwolf!

[The Production Board @tpboard]

Exciting times for all of us at @tpboard and on planet Earth as @friedberg begins the next chapter.

[david friedberg @friedberg]

last week i took on a new role as ceo @ohalo, a company we founded 4 years ago and have operated in stealth.

@ohalo uses gene editing to completely reimagine agriculture, creating new plant varieties in major crops that were not previously feasible, significantly increasing yields and productivity, ultimately helping farmers make more food using far less land, resources, and capital.

after recently achieving some major breakthroughs, i now believe @ohalo could become one of the world's most important businesses and will be dedicating myself to realizing its potential.

this is a big change for me personally, i haven't been an operating CEO for 7+ years.. but the mind-blowing results the @ohalo team have accomplished make this decision a no-brainer.

i'll be staying on a few of my existing boards while my team @tpboard focuses on our other businesses and i dedicate my time to @ohalo.

will share more details about what we've accomplished and intend to do @ohalo very soon... stay tuned!

TPB co-founded @supergut_ to help diabetics lower blood sugar and lose weight. Supergut boosts GLP-1 hormone -- similar to #ozempic and other drugs, but Supergut is affordable and non-pharmaceutical. @FoodNavigator explains the science: https://t.co/yMTjApTYrx

@MobilityNerd @friedberg Maybe they will discuss it at @theallinpod summit in LA Sept. 10-12.

I could obviously wreck both Elon and Zuck but I'll let them fight for second place

We have not consulted with @friedberg but try this: Buy track suit from @Marinelayer — donate rest to @sfspca. Take your friendly, new rescue mutt for a jog in your new duds. Won, done and run.

I realize it’s kinda apples-oranges but your odds of getting into @Harvard early decision (15%) are 15x greater than getting accepted off the @UCBerkeley waitlist (1%). Go Bears? https://t.co/rTaL1DHNXz

[The Production Board @tpboard]

Top entrepreneurs "wander into the unknown” and iterate with intense "bias to action" instead of trying to always be right, @Friedberg told @CalinFabri of @EuropeVenture. Bonus: DFree learned sales by cold-calling students to open money-market accounts. https://t.co/ZiGBx2sS4m

@_davehunter @friedberg Thanks!
