from Venture Pill · host Sam Gordon
On this week’s dose, (1:52) we kick things off with a discussion on Axoft, a company that aims to create a safe brain implant that can be used to treat neurological conditions like cerebral palsy, and their recent $8M seed round. (6:24) Next, we dive into a discourse on Vincere Health’s $1.75M seed round, and how the platform is helping hard to reach healthcare populations quit smoking. (10:47) Then, we talk about Jasper’s massive $125M Series A, and how the AI platform is helping people and companies create content with more ease and efficiency than ever before. (16:41) Last, we wrap up this week’s dose with a breakdown on Polywork, a startup that’s building a novel professional network designed to allow multi-hyphenates to connect and collaborate, hot off their recent $28M Series B.
