So proud of the @SrbInnov and @WorldBank team for Katapulting the K’23 cohort, and can’t wait to meet the companies in Fruške Terme in a few weeks. First cohort (K’22) companies have so far raised over $12MM in under a year, in a very difficult funding environment. 👏 Onwards! 🇷🇸

Today we launch @deepmark_me (@ycombinator F26). We put an inaudible ID inside an AI agent's voice, so the person on the other end of a phone call can verify who is really speaking. Here is me doing it live, on one phone.

In 2022, $238 billion in VC dollars were allocated. Just 1.9% went to women, down from 2.4% in 2021. In the first half of 2023, Black founders got 0.75% of venture funding, down from 1.25% from a year ago. We are in a crisis situation.

Why are we (@dcpublicschools) setting up ECE kids to fail with 36 grams of sugar and 650+ calories of mostly junk food during the school day (*excluding snacks*)? Those who need better nutrition the most will eat “frudel” and graham crackers for breakfast. Why, DC?

Richard Record @WorldBankECA: What would happen if we reduced barriers to trade in #WesternBalkans? Reducing waiting time at the border by 3 hours would mean the equivalent of a 2% tariff reduction and could lead to 3% higher GDP over medium term. #StartUpWeBa #WBRER
