No you don't have to have an idea yet. Yes you have to know how to build (even if you're not technical) - Also, in other news: speedun is officially moving full-time to SF. (prev it alternated SF/LA) this is for all the obv reasons - we've continued to have an insane lineup of speakers, including the founders of Carta / DoorDash / Twilio / Figma / Zynga / Airtable / Twitch / and of course, lunch/dinners with Marc/Ben alongside a16z team - and much more - the deadline for applying is May 17!

@willahmed @WHOOP Congrats💪🏽

BREAKING: WHOOP RAISES $575M AT $10.1B VALUATION  I am pleased to announce that we’ve raised $575M at a $10.1B valuation to accelerate our mission of unlocking human performance and healthspan globally. This round was led by Collaborative Fund with participation from 2PointZero Group, Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), Mubadala Investment Company, Abbott, Mayo Clinic, Macquarie Capital, Glade Brook, B-Flexion, IVP, Foundry, Accomplice, Affinity Partners, Promus Ventures, and Bullhound Capital alongside a group of individual investors including Cristiano Ronaldo, LeBron James, Rory McIlroy, Virgil van Dijk, and Mathieu van der Poel. This investor group and this moment reflect a powerful evolution underway for Whoop and the broader healthcare market. Whoop was born in performance - trusted by the best athletes in the world to train, recover, and compete at the highest level. That foundation remains core to who we are. You see that in the iconic athlete investors joining this round.  But it also represents our push into broader health.  In the past 12 months, WHOOP has received medical clearances, launched blood testing, and created a platform that has saved lives. Abbott and Mayo Clinic - two of the most respected and influential institutions in global healthcare - are now investors in Whoop. These are organizations that have shaped modern medicine. Their decision to partner with us is a clear validation of where our technology is headed. Healthcare systems around the world are reactive. For too long, they have waited for people to get sick, then intervene. Chronic disease is rising and costs continue to climb. At Whoop, we believe the future looks fundamentally different. We are building the most powerful, personal, preventive health platform in the world - powered by continuous biometric data, advanced analytics, and AI to help people understand their bodies and improve their health in real time. I am grateful to our team, our members, and our partners for believing in this vision. I’ve been building this company for 14 years and I’ve never been more excited for the future.

@akashraju4 @ycombinator @try_glimpse @a16z @8vc Congrats💪🏽🪽

I’m extremely excited to announce that @try_glimpse has raised a $35M Series A led by @a16z with continued participation from @8vc & @ycombinator bringing our total raised to $52M. At Glimpse, we’re building the AI-native infrastructure for CPG & retail brands. We started off automating the deductions workflow - recovering brands millions of dollars back into their P&L & saving dozens of hours every week. With this initial focus, we’ve also built the CPG data layer giving us the opportunity to continue expanding to more manual workflows that can be automated. We’re giving CPG brands real operating leverage in the world of AI. To our 200+ customers including PLTFRM, Evermark, IQ Bar, Alice Mushrooms, and more, thank you for your faith in us. We have more fuel now to keep supporting & scaling with you all. We’re hiring - come join us! We’re just getting started.

@Bencera 💪🏽🪽🌁

I moved to SF a month ago. Something shifted immediately. These are sacred grounds. The energy of the people who built the internet, who built the infrastructure that lets one guy with no employees build a platform, a movement, you can feel it. I barely go out. Barely date. Don’t do conferences or investor dinners. I just sit in friends’ offices with engineers and build. It’s not networking. It’s something in the air. Thank you San Francisco. Thank you ancestors. We’re so back.

@Jas_S_Sekhon @demishassabis @GoogleDeepMind Super cool, congrats!!! Let me know how I can support.💪🏽🪽

I’m excited to share that I will be joining @demishassabis and @GoogleDeepMind as Chief Strategy Officer! I feel a moral obligation to shepherd AGI into the world responsibly, benefiting everyone. I am looking forward to doing this with the team at DeepMind.

@MatthewCoast You’re right 💪🏽🪽

Be careful with a woman who doesn't have many friends. She's not lonely. She's just picky with who she lets in. She won't beg you to stay if you hurt her. She's not afraid to be alone and doesn't depend on anyone to make her happy. And if you disrespect her, don't expect a warning or a second chance. She'll cut you off without thinking twice, because her peace matters more than keeping someone who will only bring her chaos.

@RickCarusoLA Awesome 💪🏽

@marclou @steipete Really inspiring Open source is such a gift to humanity
