@dhaber Tube to Chalk Hill, walk along Regent's Park Rd past lots of lovely cafes and out on to Primrose Hill. Stellar views across the city - protected views to St Paul's & Westminster

Great to see CreativeX announcing its $25m Series B. Conviction invested in the buisness in March 2020, having tracked its progress for a couple of years prior, and we're delighted to be backing Anastsia & team again as part of this round.

Great read ahead of the weekend and echos what I’m seeing - seed selling hopes & dreams is as active as ever, but the more data you’ve got the more uncertain the markets
Are we witnessing the Great VC Pullback of 2022?
After a few years of craziness, things seem to be really changing and everyone is trying to figure out what that means

Really enjoyed this article, trying to read the tea leaves on what the public market contraction might mean for venture funding - if in doubt more runway is always good for founders
@checkwarner Great blog! We just had our first child a few weeks ago & id love to be able to take a bigger chunk of time off work & spend more time looking after her, but that’s not an option. We’re lucky that Mum has a great mat policy & can confidently take the time she wants
Today is a big day for Downing Ventures as we announce the first close of a $15m Series A funding round in @carbice - a company we know is defining this generation's material age and we don't say that lightly! See full story here: https://t.co/3t10TiiTL8 #materials#science
Surprisingly enough everyone on our team talks to each other, if you email us all separately asking to invest we’ll realise, and it’s going to harm your chances. Pick whoever you think looks most relevant on our team and reach out, we all like chatting about new opportunities
5/ If you copy my entire team on the email it is not clear who you want to respond. Emailing everyone the same thing individually is also not a great idea. Pick someone who you think is the right person or the one you want to speak to
Join tomorrow's masterclass to explore some of the different ways in which entrepreneurs can raise funds for their business: from approaching investors to mastering the pitch.
