Well worth a read! Thx @fdestin for highlighting 👌👌
So @IndexVentures has built the most phenomenal piece of (useful) VC content marketing I've seen out of Europe with their guide to the US. No wonder they're #1. So well executed. indexventures.com/expansionp…

Theresa May should have read The Prince, Art of War .. feel like her business savvy comes from Horse and Hound. At least we have a great MBA case study on how not to negotiate anything
Many big banks have purpose led advertising these days and good to see increased CSR but I do miss the days banking ads were like this! you tube link: youtu.be/dLAzdB1RvTU @NatWest_Help with that @JanhammerC music 🙏
1. Always thought we should have stayed in and help reform the EU or just played the game like other countries do (removing people who are economically inactive), helping local firms get U.K. contracts etc but if we are leaving then we must have a chance to benefit from it

4. This was clear from start of negotiations if you listened to the EU and the experts. So now we have some kind of fudge to attempt to placate warring factions

5. As a business owner, tech investor, father who cares about my kids future and somebody who is proud of Britain and our values I think we need an opportunity as the people to decide if this is the path for the U.K. Nobody votes to be a powerless appendage to the EU.
