Partiamo dalla Danimarca, dove Flatpay entra nel club degli unicorni fintech: dopo un round da circa €145M, la startup che semplifica i pagamenti per i piccoli esercenti vola a una valutazione di €1,5 miliardi e supera i €100M di ARR, crescendo a ritmi da quasi €1M di ARR al giorno. Un caso scuola di esecuzione estrema sul segmento merchant/SME. TechCrunch+1Ci spostiamo poi a Berlino con voize, che raccoglie circa $50M (~€43M) di Series A per il suo AI companion per infermieri e strutture di cura: l’obiettivo è tagliare il carico amministrativo, liberare tempo per la relazione con i pazienti ed espandersi nel resto d’Europa e negli Stati Uniti. Un esempio concreto di come l’AI possa migliorare settori labour-intensive e regolati come l’healthcare. balderton.com+1Terzo angolo: il lato investitori. Il VC specializzato Sofinnova Partners chiude Sofinnova Capital XI, un nuovo fondo da €650M dedicato a biotech e medtech early-stage, superando il target iniziale e portando gli asset in gestione oltre i €4 miliardi. In un contesto di fundraising complicato, è un segnale forte: la life science europea resta una delle poche asset class dove i grandi LP continuano a impegnare capitale pesante. Tech Funding News+1Sul fondo dello sfondo, due trend di sistema: da un lato la possibile “pausa mirata” sull’AI Act che molte startup vedono come ossigeno regolatorio nel breve, dall’altro il mini–revival dell’edtech europeo, con una nuova ondata di strumenti AI per apprendimento e didattica che torna ad attirare round, anche se di taglia più contenuta. sifted.eu+1Se ti occupi di innovazione, VC o prodotti digitali, questa puntata ti dà una fotografia compatta di dove stanno andando fintech, AI applicata e life sciences nel vecchio continente — con qualche spunto da tenere a mente per il tuo prossimo pitch o investimento.

Lewis's The Last Battle St. Philip's Church: Charleston, SC Come join us on Wednesday nights as we explore the riches of C.S. Lewis’s marvelous book The Last Battle, which is the last of The Chronicles of Narnia. It is a remarkable book on multiple levels and was awarded the Carnegie Medal back in the 1950s when it was first published. The Last Battle has some themes in common with The Great Divorce and That Hideous Strength that will make it an excellent follow-up to those two books, and like them, it has some remarkable resonance with things going on in today’s culture. It is a book that is both theologically rich and poignantly beautiful in its writing, and it can help equip us to live boldly for Christ in a culture that has lost its way. (Although this book is the last of The Chronicles of Narnia, it can stand on its own and it is not necessary to have read the other books for this class.) The Sweet Spot Jake Lebovitch & Mark Abramovitz On "The Sweet Spot" podcast, Jake & Mark discuss the "SWEET SPOT" between data utilization and human decision making within baseball development and gameplay. Within sports today, data analytics is taking over. However, human decision making still plays a valuable role in development and gameplay, and combining this intuition with data-driven insights leads to better results. The question is... what's the sweet spot? Jake is a sports performance coach and former NCAA pitcher. Mark manages growth strategy for a startup and is an ex-Goldman Sachs quant and former NCAA rower.
