We’re dedicated to empowering visionary founders and driving transformative innovation across #Web3, #AI, and #biotech. With a focus on strong fundamentals and long-term impact, we back exceptional projects at every stage of their journey, regardless of market cycles or trends.

YZi Labs’ campus tour continues! Next stop: @Columbia 🗽. Join our lunch & learn on the Atlas Scout Program, with @ellazhang516 sharing what it is, who we’re looking for, and how to get involved. Event supported by @BlockchainatCU and Columbia Investment & Finance Society.

We led RoboForce @roboforce_ai 's Pre-A because we believe physical AI will scale through fleets optimized for real work in constrained environments with immediate ROI. Great to see @Forbes covering this shift: forbes.com/sites/jonathan…

That’s why we launched the YZi Labs Atlas Scout Program. If you’re studying (or know someone) at universities including @Stanford, @Harvard, @MIT, @Columbia, @nyuniversity, @CarnegieMellon, and @UCBerkeley, apply here 👇 tinyurl.com/2datmy9v

We’re hitting the road with @BNBChain to back the next generation of student founders and investors. First stop: NYU. 🗽 @ellazhang516 told students: “AI is reshaping how entrepreneurs emerge. We’re meeting founders as young as 16–18... the next generation should be the ones spotting and backing the most exciting builders among their peers.”

Scouts are embedded in the YZi Labs ecosystem of 300+ portfolio companies, with access to mentors like @cz_binance, @ellazhang516, YZi Labs investors, and more. If you’re studying at one of the universities above — or know someone who is — we’d love to hear from you. Apply to the Atlas Scout Program 👇 tinyurl.com/2datmy9v

We created the Atlas Scout Program to empower the next generation of sharp minds to not just witness the future, but to identify, fund, and architect it. Starting with a selected cohort from @Stanford, @Harvard, @MIT, @Columbia, @nyuniversity, @CarnegieMellon and @UCBerkeley.

The next generation of Web3, AI, and biotech founders are already on campus. But the industry lacks the pipeline to back student investors, leaving young founders isolated from capital. We’re solving this by arming the student investor. 🧵👇

$BNC Public companies do not retroactively patch governance failures with $2 million golden parachutes and shadow equity plans. In our view, it is unconscionable that this Board is funneling millions to a related-party Asset Manager and nearly $2 million to an outgoing executive, all while failing to schedule an annual meeting or seeking any stockholder approval, disenfranchising the stockholders footing the bill. It is clear to us that this Board continues to treat a Nasdaq-listed company like a private piggy bank, and stockholders will not tolerate it. ⬇️ globenewswire.com/news-release/2…

Universities are home to a deep pool of onchain builder talent, with the next generation already ideating from dorm rooms and campuses. So we’re hitting the road. The BNB Chain Dev Roadshow, in partnership with @yzilabs, is visiting top US universities to meet students, share tools, and help the next generation start building 🧵👇
