Michael Jackson

When you know all the hundreds of billions of dollars in capex is money well spent. 😽

"Patents aren’t the golden ticket. When you start with the market, the mission and the team, the rest, including the right IP, will follow.". 👏 

TTOs regularly overvalue IP. The relevancy of a patent is pretty short, and it's far from being the end all, be all for success in deeptech. Good on Ale Maiano for calling this out. If you're a scientist interested in entrepreneurship, check out Wilbe asap. There's no better place for you. 👩‍🔬 

"The cult of intellectual property (IP) has become a distraction. Too often, founders and investors mistake a patent filing for proof of progress...foundational IP has its place, but it should serve the venture, not dictate it. A startup built around a patent risks becoming a company searching for a problem, rather than a venture solving one. Worse, it often signals that the founding team is motivated more by scientific pride than entrepreneurial instinct." 💯 Amen brother. Shout it loud and shout it proud.

The cyberattack on JLR has had a significant negative impact on the UK economy. The general public in most countries are still naive to the fact that cyberattacks can be more economically destructive than actual physical attacks...and the threat will only get worse with more AI and compute.
