Over the past weeks, we partnered with Finance Inc., the parent company of Baird Augustine, to design and develop a new kind of financial publication:

A modern, AI-powered paper of record for global capital markets.

Start Reading Today!

The Vision

Finance Incorporated set out to create something ambitious:

A daily publication that covers:

-Hedge funds
-Venture capital
-Family offices
-Public markets
-Private credit
-Banking and central banks

Not as fragmented content — but as a unified view of how capital actually moves.
The goal wasn’t another blog.

It was to build infrastructure for financial information — something that traders, investors, operators, and analysts could rely on every single day.

As they put it:

“A daily paper of record for global finance — synchronising the world’s financial markets.”

17 Days. One Stage. The Future of California's Economy.

It's April 28, 2026. In exactly 17 days, the doors open at CreaTV San José for the Silicon Valley Economic Forum 2026—and what's about to happen on May 15-16 may be the most consequential gathering of operators, investors, and policymakers California has hosted all year.

We're not exaggerating. Here's why insiders are scrambling for the last seats.

The Lineup Nobody Saw Coming

Where else can you watch the next Governor of California get cross-examined on stage—live, unscripted, no PR handlers?

The CA Governor Race Panel brings together three of the most consequential names in the race:

Matt Mahan — Mayor of San José
Steve Hilton — Political strategist and Fox News veteran
Antonio Villaraigosa — Former Mayor of Los Angeles

This isn't a debate sanitized for cable news. This is operators, founders, and capital allocators asking the questions that actually decide whether California stays the center of the global innovation economy—or doesn't.

The Capital in the Room Is Staggering

Forget the conference circuit's usual recycled keynote speakers. SVEF 2026 has assembled the people *deploying* the checks:

John Lin — CEO of EverCharge, scaling EV charging infrastructure that's quietly powering the transition

A keynote roster spanning AI infrastructure, climate capital, sovereign tech, and frontier biotech

Hedge fund managers, family office principals, and Series A-to-growth-stage VCs you usually only meet through warm intros
If you're building something real, this is the room.

Why 17 Days Matters

Here's the part nobody is saying out loud: the best two days of the year for serious dealmaking in Silicon Valley happen at SVEF. Last year's attendees closed term sheets in the hallway. This year, with the governor's race overlapping with the AI capex super-cycle and California's industrial policy reset, the stakes are higher.

And the clock is ticking:

May 15-16, 2026 — two days, one stage, CreaTV San José

Tickets are going fast — General Admission, VIP, and the (almost sold-out) VIP Dinner

Sponsorship slots are nearly closed — booth, speaking, and dinner tiers

What You'll Actually Walk Away With

This isn't a content-marketing event. Attendees consistently report:
Direct access to the people writing checks and writing policy
Hard intelligence on where capital is rotating in the next 12 months
Real relationships with founders, operators, and LPs—not LinkedIn connections
Front-row signal on the political shifts that will reshape the cost of doing business in California

If you've been on the fence, this is your reminder: the people who show up to SVEF are the people who shape what happens next. The people who don't read about it afterward.

A few months ago, I was working out of Shack15 in San Francisco when I met Erik Rehbinder, founder of Standout.

Now, I’ve always been a bit obsessive about my setup...especially when it comes to multiple monitors. So when Erik showed me what he was building, I paid attention.

A high-definition, Apple-quality portable display.
Simple concept. But executed at a completely different level.
Within minutes, I ordered one.

It’s rare you come across something that feels this obvious and this well done.
We wrote more about it in our latest AW3 update—along with why we’re excited about what Erik is building.
