We're at max capacity on Wednesday but have started building out our waitlist for the next AI Bridge - if you want to secure your spot, simply fill out the form here: forms.gle/EiFUmt43c8VfZB…

You can expect to finally find answers to your questions: As an AI founder, how do you find your wedge into the market? How do you navigate an enterprise account and close a deal (scary...)? As a buyer, how do you cut the noise? What's needed to move from POC to signed contract?

@crane_vc is back to school and we're celebrating in style in Paris this year! After taking our AI GTM event to a few European cities including Paris and Berlin, founders have asked for more... We're back in Paris with new content on the 11th September ⬇️

@checkwarner This is huge! Big congrats!!

📢NEWS: Today we are thrilled to announce the oversubscribed final close of Ada Ventures Fund II at £63m/£80m.

@evplot @dawncapital Massive congrats to the whole team!!

Feeling very grateful to our investors, founders & VC friends who helped us raise $700m for @dawncapital: thank you for your continued trust & support! This is very much Day 1 and the entire Dawn team is hugely excited to be able to partner with the next generation of B2B software titans. If you are building in Europe, we'd love to hear from you! 🚀💛🌞

Calling AI founders and practitioners in Paris! Come join us & @generalcatalyst with Eric Landau (@encord_team), @gabhubert (@dust4ai) and @olivkoch (@Onfido) to talk about building, using and selling AI solutions. Spaces are limited: lu.ma/craneGCParisAI

Women in Enterprise Tech is back 💥 building or working at an enterprise software company? Join @crane_vc, @dawncapital + @femstreet for an evening of drinks 🍸, snacks 🍕and lightning talks ⚡️from 3 GTM leaders 6.30pm 21 July (London) 🚀 RSVP here - eventbrite.co.uk/e/women-in-ent…

If you’re (1) a founder in enterprise B2B SaaS; (2) the one leading the charge in sales and (3) starting to feel like you’re the bottleneck in the sales process, this is an absolute must read. Enjoy! crane.vc/senseons-journ…

@ayala_ples and I sat down with Dave, CEO of @SenseonTech, for this new #founderGTMstory. He’s (in my humble opinion) the best one to learn from on this topic. He’s been very open with us, sharing their success in the transition... but also their mistakes.

One of the questions I always get from founders at some point in their journey is: How do I transition away from founder-led sales? When do you know it's the right time and where should I even start? What profile should my first salespeople have?

And finally—we’re super proud to have led @mycelial’s $3.8M Seed round land can’t wait to see what people build with it. Get early access at mycelial.com and watch for the open source drops coming soon! 🍄🎉🚀 crane.vc/seeding-edge-n… /Fin

Great advices from @MorganeZerath and Micah Smurthwaite at #SaaStreuropa, talking about "Personnel and Process to scale from €1M to €100M"

We are happy to announce that we have raised a $6.6M funding round led by Crane Venture Partners with participation from Eniac Ventures, MXV Capital, Entrée Capital, Ariel Maislos, and a variety of individual angel investors. github.com/novuhq/novu

Yesterday, @nuclia_ announced their $5.4M Seed round. Almost a year ago, our friends at @Elaia_Partners introduced Eudald and Ramon. We knew they had something, but that something was so much more than I could’ve imagined… 0/n 🧵👇🏽

Today we’re proud to announce Encore v1.0! We believe that over time, Encore will transform developers’ lives to become more joyful and creative. And we’re finally able to share that we’ve raised $3M in seed funding to get there! encore.dev/blog/fun-back-…

I think it’s so important to celebrate those wins. I also find it very refreshing that he went more on the personal side and shared some of his challenges, simply as a human being... who’s also a founder.

Don’t want to spoil anyone, but for almost 2 years, Jorge has been a one-man band in Sales and Marketing. He kept iterating on messaging and sales strategies, which led him to close the first million in ARR… by himself!

Today, it’s @jorgesancha’s turn to share his #founderGTMstory with us. Jorge is the co-founder and CEO of @tinybird. What a ride it’s been for him! Read here: crane.vc/qa-on-tinybird…
