I send and receive a lot of emails. “Email ethics” is key but, surprisingly, good email manners are not yet commonplace. Here is a little thread of my personal pet peeves and suggestions. What are yours?

Next week I am sitting down with @fdouetteau, co-founder and CEO of @dataiku to chat all things US expansion, focusing on building the right team. What does it take for a European founder to build a big business on the other side of the Atlantic and to make it truly global? Dear X, what should I ask him? What would you like to know?

@CurhamLorraine @dawncapital @wvce_tech Thank you so much for coming to the panel and for sharing! It certainly is - here for the AI driven value, not the AI driven hype.

🚀 No longer growth at all costs, growth at reasonable price
🚀 Reprice employee options
🚀 Focus on succession planning

Lago is hiring for a Chief of Staff, it’s a RARE opportunity
If I didn’t have a job in ventures, I’d work for @byAnhtho at @GetLago
if you are a go getter, like the early startup culture, please apply
Role is based in Paris, but it’s worth moving for!
