The problem with modern architecture.
(It isn't what you think)
A short thread...
One for @Landscape_vc sifted.eu/articles/softbank-… - I've had my fair share of "power play" meetings with VCs, such an odd mentality to have in an industry which is so people focused.

THIS THIS THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN. THIS. Please watch and share. Brilliantly and simply put.
For anyone who's my age, healthy and wondering why we have to do this social distancing. Worth a watch - youtu.be/dSQztKXR6k0 – at Manchester, England

It may turn out that everyone (particularly students) being stuck at home causes net more good startups to be founded. Microsoft and Facebook were both started during Reading Period at Harvard, because that was when the founders had time to work on their own projects.

Thank you to @M_Entrepreneurs & @AccelerateMeCo for having me as a mentor. I'm always blown away by how much you guys do to support and grow early stage talent. – at Manchester, England
Well, that's a cheap way to get on the property ladder... just a shame it doesn't come with a ladder. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-ca…

Hot take: get your own office
1. Take pride in having your name on the door
2. Feel the pressure of keeping the lights on
3. Design a space that's true to your culture
Avoid spaces that make it too easy to throw in the towel when things get tough
I hate it when people actively choose to speak in riddles to try and make themselves sound more intelligent. - Stop trying so hard to be the smartest person in the room, its so counterproductive!

The lack of seed stage venture capital in most cities is crazy to me. Once a company has traction, it can get attention from VCs across the world. But at inception, a lack of local capital makes it very hard to get off the ground.
I'm bullish that this will improve in the 2020s.
It seems #NorthernRail have just fully given up - "The train to Crew has been cancled. This is due to a fault on this train... that has now been fixed!" - Privatisation when there's no ability for competition is just a recipe for complacency and poor service. – at Manchester, England

Looking forward to my first talk of the decade for @SheffTechParks in Feb. Topic: How VCs make money and why you should care. Aimed at early stage, high growth potential founders.
