7 August 2020 #26 Heath was hoping to escape from it all, skiing in Queenstown. No sooner was he there and he bumped into Garth for an early coffee and Charlie at the end of the day for a pint. Flying Kiwis everywhere! Apparently, Josh had an engagement there a week earlier The 2nd Quarterly Report for 2020 is just in from Kami, FKA's #02 portfolio company. They are going from strength to strength and have a BIG revenue goal. Great stuff! If you are a shareholder and did not get the report then please let our investor rep [email protected] know. 21 portfolio companies! Check out the updated fka.nz/founders page! Founders, if you have better pics then the ones we found on the web?  Thank you to all our Angels for the constructive responses to the new  " Looking for a Champion" emails. Debra and Phil have been able to progress their respective opportunities with a strong level of interest and offers of help. Let's keep it going! 18 August is pitch night @ KPMG. This week's LinkedIn post to tell founders about our ADI sessions had a "Back to the Future" theme. We had three founders - fractional homeownership, wine matching, strategy consulting. Here is the Zoom recording of the call with Randy earlier this week. Suse has kindly made it available. Always, great to hear a considered global perspective in our all too often insular ecosystem. This looks like an interesting ZERO priced webinar on pricing for startups. Bummer about the timing - 3 am in NZ.  Run by Moven Capital. We're talking with Maciej about a recording for Kiwis. More about it here. Bezos, Gates, Zuckerberg. If you dig deep enough, behind most "self-made millionaires" you will find a parent with good contacts, a few savings, or simply a lot of money for their children. Bust that 'self-made' myth! Why not keep going when you have a theme going all by coincidence already? Have a great weekend all!
