@sam_gzstrength A strict 185 OHP is definitely in the "crazy strong" territory.

@TheGeorgePu How do you bootstrap a venture that’s developing a solution for aging or a new cancer therapy ?
English
Getting old shouldn't be viewed as inevitable, just because it happens to everyone. It's a disease that kills over 100,000 people a day, and hopefully it will be optional in the future.

My co-founder @AdamDraper turned 40 today 🥳
His 30s produced some legendary investments.
Clock resets today.
First investment of the 40s… who’s it going to be? 👀

@Yoroomie @StephNass You need a separate illustration for deep tech founders.

Must read for marketplace founders 👇

One of the most common questions I get from founders is "How much traction do I need with my marketplace to raise a pre-seed or seed round?" There isn't a simple answer, so I created a 10+ page guide on fundraising for marketplaces in 2026 that dives into it. Here's a chart from the guide with marketplace benchmarks & valuations for 2026:

@DON_Davesford @amarifields_ Facts. Warm intros are everything in this space.
English
@amarifields_ From my experience as a Business developer who bridges the gap between investors/VC and project team/founders, most founders actually want to raise but only 2/20 actually gets investment — bottlenecks has always been, meeting investors thesis and being Investment ready.
English
raising a $500k pre-seed and in the process realized
the hardest part about fundraising is not the rejection.
it is never getting the chance to show the right people what you could build.
because sometimes all it takes is one person willing to bet on you to build a dynasty.

@bushido_hk @levelsio Interest research question. I’d say a combination of both.
English
@levelsio Interesting point! I wonder if it's the immersion aspect or just the pressure of needing to communicate for survival that makes it so effective. Have you tried this approach yourself, or seen data comparing the two methods?
English
Duolingo (daily) + ChatGPT advanced voice mode is how you do it.
@levelsio@levelsio
Flying to a different country for a week to learn the language is more effective than a year spent on Duolingo

@omar_or_ahmed Few understand this. Bonus points if founders start looking the infamous diagnostic space which scares everyone.

Healthcare will be bigger than Legal AI for sure!

Healthcare AI will be bigger than legal AI, bigger than coding AI. But most investors still dont see it. Heres the math that changes everything 🧵

@amarifields_ @niklaswauch_ Tier 2: A combination of Building in public, developing a personal brand through LinkedIn, and aggressive networking.
As my mentor once said, "your first investment will come from someone you know."
English
@JKevin2011 @niklaswauch_ bingo. what does tier 2 look like?
English
currently raising a $500k pre seed round.
some investors ask for financials, others say you do not need them at this stage.
early stage fundraising feels like a different rulebook every conversation.
founders who raised… what was the real deciding factor for your investors?
English
@niklaswauch_ @amarifields_ How to stand out as a founder:
Tier 1 (no traction needed): Stanford/Harvard/MIT/Yale grad, exited founder, Ex FAANG, Ex MBB, Noble prize winner, etc
English
@amarifields_ I personally think a personal brand and sharing your moves (obv. only the ones that can be shared without hurting your biz) is something important. So that you‘re doing right :)
Other than that I think your background & past projects as a Founder are the most important thing
English
@GetVettable @amarifields_ Nowadays in deep tech, some investors already expect a "minimum buyable product" to be built and ideally in the hands of your first paying customer at the Pre-Seed stage.
English
@amarifields_ Then the validation becomes technical milestones, not product usage. Deep tech has different signals but investors still want proof of progress.
English
@FrankPepper12 @DamienWayne Yup. Ironically Investors these days probably throw decks in Claude or something to get feedback lol
English
@DamienWayne So what? Who gives a fuck what made it as long as the information on it is accurate and does the job.
For a whole ai investment craze people sure are quick to say don’t use ai for anything.
Ya gotta get consistency with your message

@MoodiSadi @omar_or_ahmed In long term settings, there are more "partnership friendly" EHR systems like Matrix care or Point Click Care.
English
@omar_or_ahmed $1.6T admin overhead is the wedge. Three things win: 1) EHR integration (Epic/Cerner APIs), 2) HIPAA-compliant infra, 3) clinician workflow that doesn't add clicks. Nail all three = category king.

Startup idea: AI entertainment platform for people with cognitive impairment.
The goal is to keep them mentally engaged and happy with repetitive, simple, ultra-safe content. Could be AI conversations or AI videos. Must be voice activated.
There's 3M ppl in the US with mild dementia - that's the wedge to enter the market.
If you can keep them busy + happy for 1-2 hours/day, that's HUGE for the person and their family.
