Knowledge vs. experience. Creativity is all about synthesizing existing things in new ways driven by your experience. Experience doesn't happen sitting at your desk or sitting on your couch--get out there! .
@jmskibsted killed it last night with his talk on the hype around the future of mobility at #atlantadesignfestival. He predicts #driverless buses as only viable solution for cities--electric cars reaching their peak--electric bikes way more runway

A solid investment 101 from @crunchbase- great read for early-stage founders weighing options and getting glimpse into the belly of the beast buff.ly/2Syu7Pr #VentureCapital
82% of U.S. births in 2016 were attributed to Millennial moms and the demographic is growing fast. Investing in this space makes perfect business sense. @BeCurious_VC

The number of mothers in the world is large — and diverse. Of the 43.5 million women in the U.S. who are mothers, many of them are millennials. That's why @BeCurious_VC sees so much potential in investing in the tech-parenting space.

Great insights from @rosskimbel at last week's #M2Moms conference. Glad he was able to present on behalf of @BeCurious_VC
New tech companies have introduced spouses. Have created unique job markets. Have helped them buy their homes. So why wouldn’t this generation expect the same kind of solutions in their roles as parents?

When a brand or company adds value, not just in the act of parenting, there holds huge opportunity to make a difference and build lasting loyalty.
Millennial moms don’t solely identify as moms. They’re women, sisters, friends, colleagues, etc… And they don’t want to give up those roles once they have children #m2moms #VentureCapital #Becuriouspartners
