We had a great pitch night on Tuesday and will be able to share the recordings soon. Thank you to KPMG for hosting. Great updates from Spoke, Chnnl & Kara!
On Tuesday, also a great talk on SaaS accounting from Julian.

We like him, we like querky but it seems that the accounting prefession likes him too. He was recently awarded the Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand Fellowship. "I'm a Chinese and we fricking love money" is just one quote from his acceptance speech.

Angel investing doesn't stop after the 1st cheque. Engaged investor reps are good for companies and investors, Phil being a very fine example. FKA investors have stepped up in a rights issue this week. $1m committed will help to make up for other shareholders.
Robett is running  2 days of workshops—sessions and exclusive global insights led by a bunch of "Weapons" in his network, in a fully safe Chatham House Rules environment for 100 founders. Apply by 21st August!
Wed, 14 Sep, 16:00-18:00. Do you want to see live pitches and learn from their open feedback session in real time? And learn how to successfully pitch and present to raise capital from an expert panel in an open Q&A session? MORE HERE!
After The Spectacular Rise and Fall of WeWork it is unbelievable that Andreessen Horowitz back Neumann (again!), the largest individual check Andreessen Horowitz has ever written. More HERE!
Product Market Fit—Andrew Chen from a16z shares an excellent deck HERE!
Josh says "I'm running a 3-hour crash course on starting a business (and exiting and a few things in between) on 24 August 2022." Colourful! Register here!⚖️‍
Masco from the Bridgewest tech incubator stable came to ADI recently looking for a lead investor to validate its round. It seems the crowd has now provided that validation. Read more! Low founder equity and a dominant position of the tech incubator make for an unusual startup structure.
Also, on LinkedIn and over 2,000 FKA GIFs on GIPHY.
