Hello twitter, hello twitter community! “Only the written word remains” – a German (?), scary (?!) saying I grew up with. Contrasting with twitter – right? Knowing I’ll fail here and there I hope you’ll help me getting along using this powerful tool #twitter

Great video of @kiyahwillis explaining her journey from social justice warrior to supporter of Israel. Give her a follow if you haven't already

Founders often spent too little time thinking about the board of their company and the role that their investors play. At the same time, angel investors don't always deliver the value that a startup need as it grows.

@lak Bien venu à la maison 😉!

I stayed outside of my echo chamber a couple of months. It's painfull. Experiment over, moved into chamber, nice 😊

@bakingVC Courageux, mon cher 🙌👌😂🌅

@FlorianSwiss Oui, escargots

If you don't know where to eat in a foreign country, chose a place that has been around for long and pick one of the favorite dishes (shitty F&B doesn't survive) I had Spicy Snail Noodles for breakfast, and it was delicious!

@filipdames @t_blom Our skribble.com/de/ solves this - have fun signing wherever you are 🙌🥂

@t_blom It’s so sad, we’ve been pushing to change this for years… picture this as a🇩🇪-based fund with 100+ notarizations per year!

To make an investment in a German startup, I've had to use a notary to sign power of attorney, then send it to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to be apostilled. Then wait 3-4 weeks. Germany appears not to be a country that values investment in its startup ecosystem.

Inspired by a phenomenal art exhibition, here are some thoughts on the essence of timing for entrepreneurs (… and VCs). If you missed a big wave, think of what happened to defining artists like Vincent van Gogh who were ahead of their times... medium.com/brains-to-vent…

@bakingVC “The best source of truth is your own mind and logic.” ... plus or in combination with intuition (from conscious or unconscious pattern recognition)?

I had long thought there is some societal "truth hierarchy" (ascending): Fiction Journalism Evidence in court Science Well, that's rubbish. There is "true" fiction and there is BS science. The best source of truth is your own mind and logic.
