I can't think of a single institutional VC that has local community meetups organized bottom-up in major cities. None, other than MCJ. It's really bananas, this is going to be the biggest brand of the next gen of VCs.

New data shows that producing and combusting the world’s reserves would yield over 3.5 trillion tons of greenhouse gas emissions, over seven times the remaining carbon budget of 1.5C and more than all emissions produced since the industrial revolution.😢carbontracker.org/finally-we-hav…

MCJ Toronto Climate Tech meet-up last night ✨ 20 new faces and now friends half way round the world. @mcjcollective

10 brand interviews DONE! Wow they’re fun. Open sourcing sustainability strategies is essential for progress across an industry. This is us, trying to do that. Hugely appreciative of Nicola and Little Freddie UK for sharing so much!

In 90 minutes I got to chat with folks working on solar expansion, reducing cow emissions, commercial building decarbonization, workforce expansion, oceanography networks, and plenty more like me finding their way after leaving Meta, Stripe, etc. x.com/swrunkle/statu…

Fun to meet everyone last night at The Drizzle in Malmö 🍻 Thanks Leone Baron Thai Priscilla Tyler Kevin Webb for co-hosting

Not a best-of. Not a guidebook. A living map of my favourite places in London — hidden corners, cultural institutions, artist-led spaces, late-night sanctuaries, bakeries, baths, experimental bookshops, basements, saunas, tiny stages, boats. Places that are alive, weird, good. 😍

University budgets everywhere are getting slashed, and we hear many PhD students with accepted ICML papers can no longer afford to attend. We are stepping in to offer travel grants for researchers who lost funding. Sponsored by Pillar VC, Ormoni Bio, Latent Labs, and Cimulate
