Has anyone done the analysis of what SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic going public does to the California budget...? Lots of employees in the state -- if 10K people are making $30M (as some suggest, etc.).... Facebook IPO changed the picture and that was peanuts!

@SebJohnsonUK @eqt This is not my area of expertise, but my understanding is that companies in non EU countries that have some association with the Horizon innovation programs may be eligible. So, possibly UK, Norway, etc.

The team running the EU's €5bn ScaleUp Fund wants to deploy its capital into UK startups.
THIS IS HUGE
Currently the €5bn fund is only allowed to deploy into EU companies, but @eqt wants to change that.
In Europe the tech ecosystem is one ecosystem. Investors invest cross-border all over Europe.
So the fund being EU-focused doesn't make any sense, except of course, that it's an EU initiative.
This is amazing news for UK scale ups if it happens, but a tricky question for the EU more broadly.
Great stuff from @FPratty. @Siftedeu article below.

The annual "For a Sustainable Digital Sector" survey by France's communications regulatory authority, @Arcep, found that the electricity consumption and greenhouse gas emissions of data centers continue to increase, rising by 38% over three years despite improved efficiency.

Mind-blowing from @SpaceX: "Future Growth Opportunities: While launch, AI, and compute remain core markets, management believes time travel represents infinite TAM by enabling customer acquisition across past, present, and future civilizations."

our company, which lost money last quarter, is going to take a big slice of $28.5 trillion market that we project will exist, primarily in a field in which we have almost no current presence, which is remote from what we are best known for. everything is going to be great. you will accept our projections. pay no attention to previous skepticism.

The space economy is about to pop - and much faster than folks realize. Check this tweet in 5 years.

SpaceX is basically Anthropic’s webhost and the rest is jazz hands.

Anthropic is paying SpaceX $1.25B/month for compute (!?!)
