We’re excited to announce our Cloud Challenger Top 100 list for 2024. We believe these are the start-ups that have the best chance to challenge the established order & build big meaningful co’s. They are a proxy for what the future looks like🔥☁️🥊 notion.vc/cloud-challengers-…
Very excited to see @AikidoSecurity join the @NotionCapital portfolio. A young company that have already built so much.
Feeling very excited to be partnering with @AikidoSecurity. They may just be raising a Seed round but the signs of a soon-to-be market leader are emerging pretty fast. Why did we invest?
Thread.
Completely agree. Just cheap headlines without any understanding of the facts or the objectives of the program…
Sorry this is embarrassing for the guardian and cynics commenting below.
(I was on the guardian board for 9 years and they are investors in founders factory so I get disappointed by the energy they spend on partisan baseless attacks like this article).
There really is nothing to see here. And lots more important issues in the world…
Zero chance Sunak did the future fund because of minority investments from his wife’s fund.
She invested in U.K. cos to support founders and now all this cynicism is the British response.
The future fund matching mechanic meant automatic funding if matched AND shared risk (ie private sector wouldn’t fund if they didn’t have a good level of belief in the co).
Author also doesn’t qualify ONLY around 10 percent have failed which is strong result so far for the future fund. As fund has equity stakes in around 50 percent of cos that have raised follow on funding and have potential to make multiples of on that capital and hence more than compensate for loan losses. Power law dynamics of vc.
Would the guardian and labour prefer the chancellor had done nothing ? Most leading economies had support methods (less well structured than this) AND labour gov wisely supported the future fund at the time.
How would these cynics suggest their bizarre conflict of interest accusations could be avoided - by disallowing Akshay Murty cos from accessing future fund (noting she was a minority investor thus penalising the companies and other larger investors …)
The fund backed a huge amount of companies, so the fact that four were also backed by Akshata is not unusual for a prolific U.K. tech investor. The extra point is these were gov funds seeking a return ….
@carolvorders do you really believe the cynical motivations you imply?

Boom 💥 Great to be announcing our investment in @m3terHQ & joining our friends at @Kindred_VC @usv @insightpartners
Thrilled to be announcing our investment in @m3terHQ . Usage based pricing is now being used by the majority of #saas companies because it makes them more successful. I’m v confident m3ter are building category leading infrastructure and tools that can power this transition.
M3ter locks in $14M to expand its usage-based pricing tools for SaaS businesses tcrn.ch/40MFNQy by @ingridlunden

Interesting point but sure depends on who runs sales @jasonlk

My least favorite idea of all is to have customer success report to sales
It's trading off the future for the present
