I was thinking about Will Smith and his inevitable conversation after with his kids. He’ll be gutted i’m sure. And I know kids - they’ll say “don’t worry about it, it happens we love you” and I took a mental note on how to deal with my kids when they do something badly wrong.

@sharonodea Yes i’m uncomfortable with the coverage of this

Given the Oscars has given out awards to known sexual predators and nonces on live TV while systematically marginalising Black and minority talent I’m not sure two millionaires playing slapsies on stage comes anywhere close tbh.

Who are Europe’s best founder coaches?

Say what you like about Rishi, he does a cracking impression of a billionaire who has never been in a shop before.

@SETsquared_Br @fluoretiQ @Corrigan_accts @setsquared @EngineShed_BB @marty_inbristol So good. Well done!

It was brilliant to catch up with members & guests at last night's #SSConnect event, great turn out and lots of new connections made. Congrats again to @fluoretiQ for winning 'Success of the Month'. Plus huge thanks to our event sponsors @Corrigan_accts for their amazing support

@sharonodea 🤣 love your chat @sharonodea

After reading this I can only conclude London is much better for the departure of every single one of these twats. thetimes.co.uk/article/how-to…

@sharonodea Just reward 😏

And as it turns out his sideways toast got stuck in the toaster and burned.

The most ‘Men: Why Are You Like This’ thing happened when I was out last night but because I am British obvs I said nothing at the time and am tweeting about it now instead. So I was at a gig. Bob Log III (IYKYK. If you don’t know you should get to know.) (1/x)

@_bobbyds @laura_buhler Winner!

@SETsquared_Br @PEEQUAL1 I was sorry to miss this story but the 14 pitches that followed were superb!

Fantastic to hear from @PEEQUAL1 Founders, Amber and Hazel, about how the #EnterprisingWomen programme supported them as they work towards launching the UK’s first female urinal. Congrats to them for raising £250K in their first funding round! 👏👏👏

@deepalinangia I always wonder with these…why? Why are you getting in touch? What are you hoping for here? Sometimes I do ask and very rarely they do respond!

Got a Linkedin request from a gent. This is what it says under his name. "Entrepreneur| VC @ XXX Venture Fund| Early Stage Startups| Angel & Seed Investment| Fintech| Web 3.0| PropTech| SaaS| DeepTech| Healthcare| Investor Relations| Family Office Fund". What would you do?

@dr_fiona Crikey. That’s unusual - intrigued as to the category. I work with a period care FemTech that has a male Director and him being there is really powerful, but the founder has the lived experience of periods and the business would be nothing without that

@sharonodea Yes! I hadn’t noticed that, but of course you did. This is very true. Case closed!

Opening crisps sideways is the true marker of a proper session.

@rocketmakers @BrionyPhi1 Kept reading this as ‘International Ego Day’ and trying to decide what I thought about that

It’s #internationallegoday and we have been celebrating all week! We rented 140 litres of lego and challenged everyone in the crew to create a sculpture that represents our culture and values. Check out a selection below and help us decide a winner by commenting your favourite!

@SETsquared_Br I’m all set for this with a new take - ‘negotiation by design’ inspired by and built around the principles of tai chi. Finding the way through a negotiation is about balancing often opposing forces

Looking to develop or improve your #negotiation skills? Tomorrow's workshop led by Entrepreneur in Residence, @ALWedgely is ideally suited for #techfounders looking to do better business with customers or who have a major negotiation upcoming. 👇bit.ly/3Aq6uiC

@EnglandNetball Two thrilling nights of sport @EnglandNetball THANK YOU

@EmmaFowlerAsia Thanks for bringing this to me Emma x

@EmmanuelDemuren The best comment made on this

#MollyMae has demonstrated the fundamental flaw with Tory ideology. Basically “If I can do it why can’t they”. A harmful reductionist worldview that poverty is a choice based on laziness and a complete ignorance about principles of (in)equality of opportunity and privilege.
