SpaceX confirmed in their IPO filing that they still plan to offer point-to-point terrestrial travel on Earth using Starship

It will enable passengers to fly anywhere in the world in about 30 minutes or less on Starship.

• Los Angeles to New York: 5h 25m → 25 min
• Bangkok to Dubai: 6h 25m → 27 min
• Tokyo to Singapore: 7h 10m → 28 min
• London to New York: 7h 55m → 29 min
• New York to Paris: 7h 20m → 30 min
• Sydney to Singapore: 8h 20m → 31 min

Get ready, the future is wild.

We visited @splight_ai offices in SF during our Annual Summit. One of our earliest bets and proof of why we invest before the consensus forms. The energy problem is transmission.
Splight solves it with software.

Now, let Thomas Vadora (Co-founder) speak for himself🎥

Last week, our portfolio founders met with @TimDraper and @AdamDraper at the #DCAnnualSummit2026 in San Francisco.

Private meetings where they talked about what they're building, the technical challenges behind it, and where they're taking these companies long-term💪🏻

Ninth year coming to Silicon Valley and third year bringing portfolio founders with us.

The Draper Network held its 41st Summit in Half Moon Bay and we showed up with companies building at the frontier. 🧵

The first night of the #DCAnnualSummit2026 started over cocktails in Half Moon Bay.

Just founders, investors, and builders actually talking. @TimDraper set the tone: "We're going to mine asteroids, go to Mars, grow you a new kidney". A timeline for what's next🚀

The Annual Summit 2026 kicked off today in San Francisco.

Welcome coffee, the first signs of what the week is about, and a visit to @vercel's offices.

Day one set the tone for what the week is actually about. 🧵

In 2016, Unleash Immuno Oncolytics was an Argentine biotech engineering a virus to hunt tumor cells. No validation, no consensus, and no obvious market.

We invested anyway. Now, the company was acquired for USD 12,5M🚀

LATAM deep tech, 9 years early.

Elon Musk: “My last words would be: I would encourage everyone to be optimistic and excited about the future. For quality of life, it’s better to err on the side of being an optimist and wrong rather than a pessimist and right.”

From an idea born in Argentina to a quantum acquisition 🚀

We backed @SkyloomG when building the space internet sounded like science fiction.

Now it’s part of @IonQ_Inc, proof that deep tech founders from LATAM can shape civilization’s future.
