Congrats to @fabiodl0216, @kaustav98255 & the Paradime Labs team for launching on @ProductHunt today. #analyticsengineers on @paradimelabs are 50% more efficient when working with #dbt because they get a non-linear value jump. Check out their page here: producthunt.com/posts/paradi…

Quick intro teaser: The university spinout playbook in Europe is broken and needs to be fundamentally rewritten.
I have conversations with university startup spinouts and frequently find that founders are pulling the short straw vs the university.
This piece outlines some great tips. Unfortunately in the UK, these ideal terms are far from reality in most cases.

Ideas need to come to life. Ideas and their execution are the bedrock for our civilization and a pandemic won’t stop that.

I'd love to understand what countries' - especially Sweden's - next step is in the fight against corona. And - what signal would trigger the next step?
Congrats @MinutHQ for making the finals of Product Hunt Golden Kitty Awards 2019. #nordicmade producthunt.com/golden-kitty…
Yesterday, I got "doored" when biking as a car door opened over the bike lane. About 10% of car-bike crashes are caused by this. A rear facing camera and SW that stops doors could save lives. Are @nvidia, @Waymo, @Mobileye or @Tesla up for the challenge?

A Danish founder asked me about accounting. There are at least four Swedish companies working to automate accounting: @DooerHQ, @mpawlo w. Redflag, @wint_ab, @Bokioapps. Who in Denmark is working on this? #cphftw #sthlmtech #nordicmade

When getting ready to pitch VCs, founders often jump right into assembling a slide deck.
I think this is a mistake.
I’d suggest that you start by writing twenty headlines that sum up your startup, and only then build the slides.
Here’s why:

Past months I saw:
* 3 seed startups backed by large funds that lost interest and sold back their shares.
* 2 seed startups backed by seed funds that had toxic super pro-rata rights.
These startups went bust despite decent PMF. There must be a better way here. #nordicmade
10 years ago, the European Commission - following complaints from small web browsers like @opera - began the investigation that led to the unbundling of Microsoft's browser Internet Explorer and the OS Windows.
Yesterday, @Spotify announced acquiring two podcasts startups to go head-to-head with @ApplePodcasts. The platform battle is far from over.
