Hi there,
Following a few days exploring the vibrant city of New York, I'm back with the weekly recap of investments from last week. In the realm of early-stage funding, a total of nine startups secured approximately $50 million, with notable outliers including Lakera ($10M) and LimmaTech (CHF 33M).
Regrettably, I couldn't attend the ETH AI+X summit this year, but I'm determined not to miss it next time! Anticipating great things in the future!
Have a great week,
Gian
