Gen Z is so anti-social and scared of rejection / embarrassment that $400B+ has been dumped into ways for them to make friends
Jonas@jonaswillett1
The IRL connection economy is a $400B+ market. And companies are racing to own it. In the last 6 months, $800M+ in capital was deployed on "IRL" bets. @Tinder invested $60M into a new Events feature for connecting matches in-person. They're pivoting to IRL and offering experiences such as speakeasies, raves, and pottery classes. @222place: raised a $10.1M Series A to curate blind social experiences for Gen Z. Personality-matched groups sent to hyperlocal nightlife events. @JagermeisterUSA launched BestNightsVC - the only venture fund in the world dedicated solely to nightlife and IRL connection. 16 portfolio companies across 4 continents. @timeleft: dinner with 5 strangers, every Wednesday. €18M ARR. 6,500 dinners/week across 200+ cities. Dion: members-only social app where the first move is buying someone a real drink, redeemed IRL. 10K members, 30K+ on the waitlist founded by @revekkapal. Pie: Bonobos founder @dunn built an IRL friendship app. $24M raised. 130K+ MAU. @weroad_official: group trips for 20-30 year olds who don't know each other beforehand. $150M valuation. Matchbox: is an algorithm-powered matching platform for IRL events and has powered over 100,000 connections. founded by @liamjmcgregor (prev @MarriagePact) New dating apps like Known @Celesteamadon, Cerca @MylesCerca, and Ditto @AllenWangzian are aiming to improve connection amongst young people. Billion-dollar companies are paying $$$ for community and events leads: - @AnthropicAI: Marketing Events Manager ($255k) - @tryramp: Community Manager ($223k) - @tryramp: Events & Culture Manager ($181k) - @duolingo: Senior Community Manager ($193k) - @NotionHQ: Community Programs Lead Everyone knows the more time we spend online, the more valuable real-life connection becomes. The question isn't whether IRL wins. It's who facilitates it best.

@SperrysandNikes Lowkey sounds like that should be worth $500B

Give me $400B and I will sit next to you on a barstool and have a beer

@PrefEquityPeter @LeveredVinny What comments on the deck?
English
There were ~150k grants for 2025… did people actually think they were reading every one of these?
Of course random grants were terminated inadvertently. The mandate was slash spending
NowThis Impact@nowthisimpact
In his deposition, DOGE employee Justin Fox said he used AI to tag DEI grants to cancel — without ever instructing the AI on what DEI is. Among the grants terminated was a $350k grant to replace an aging HVAC system at the High Point Museum in North Carolina. The AI flagged it because the grant stated, ‘Improving HVAC systems enhances preservation conditions for collections, aligning with the goal of providing greater access to diverse audiences.’

@wsyapper @SperrysandNikes so fair SOFR just sounds like Sophie, LIBOR has no other comp

@GordonGekko420 My exact thoughts, if anything it will promote more efficiency among analysts which will drive expectations of an ability to take on a higher work load. I don’t think it’ll change the hours much at all
English
It’s funny because the higher ups thing that AI will make analysts more efficient and able to go home.
The reality will probably be that deal leads expect analysts to do more with AI, hours stay the same and work load of analysts increases overall.
Remains to be seen
Boring_Business@BoringBiz_
BREAKING: UBS is planning on phasing out meal stipends for bankers, claiming that AI productivity tools should help analysts finish their work faster and go home The meal stipend has been a core part of every banking job for many decades now UBS would be the first bank to make such a move if this moves forward

@the_P_God Thinking we go drink Guinness elsewhere 80% of the weekends this summer?
English
Anyone who has lived in nyc knows the spring and fall are superior. The summer is too hot and humid and everyone is away 80% of the weekends.
Dae ✨ ⚢@Artbaesel
Everyone is speaking about a NY summer but a NY spring is just as lovely.

I can just feel the day drinking entering my bones as we speak we’re so back

@EVillageVillain Actually not gonna lie they’re super accommodating, I went in-person and asked about a 6-person table for my Dad’s birthday and they helped out
