Funny until it’s real. Agentic AI - systems that act and spend without a human "click" - poses massive safety and legal risks. Full thoughts on the "Lobster in the Machine" here: 👇 lasinger.net/p/the-lobster-…
Big news: @KaiaHealth is joining @swordhealth in a up to $285M deal. 🚀 Since 2020, we’ve supported in Kaia’s mobile-first AI and the believe that "software is eating pills". Today, that contrarian thesis is global reality. @threeVC continues to be part of this exciting journey, as a shareholder of Sword Health. Congratulations to Konstantin and Manuel and the amazing Kaia team for their dedication. European foresight, global impact. 📈
Sword Health agrees to acquire rival Kaia Health for $285 million in its biggest deal to date bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Mind blown after a growth roundtable with the legend @SeanEllis here in Vienna! 🚀 Key takeaway: Product-Market Fit is a number, not a feeling. If <40% of your users would be "very disappointed" without you, STOP scaling and fix the product. #GrowthHacking #PMF #Startups
The most dangerous playbook is the one that worked perfectly for a world that no longer exists. Why are investors like Peter Thiel now talking about the Antichrist & Armageddon? Not religion, but a search for new frameworks. Old models fail in an age of exponential AI & chaos. Two risks: - Armageddon: Catastrophic self-destruction (AI, nukes). - Stagnation (Antichrist): A deceptive, tech-managed "utopia" that trades freedom for comfort, leading to a slow, spiritual death. The investment thesis? Navigate the "Katechon" (narrow path): Skeptical of centralization/surveillance. Favors decentralization, individual sovereignty, human agency (e.g., #Bitcoin, biotech, new energy). We need new maps to invest in a future that avoids both fiery destruction & soul-crushing boredom. #VentureCapital #PeterThiel #FutureOfTech
The startup world is blinded by survivorship bias. We copy the 1% of winners, ignoring the lessons from the 99% that failed. It's like reinforcing a plane where you see bullet holes, but ignoring the fact that planes shot in the engine never return. The real insights aren't in the success stories; they're in the graveyard. Study failure. That's where the alpha is. #Startups #VC #Investing #Bias
🔥 Big thanks to @threeVC for joining the Reverse Pitch stage at Startup Grilling 2025! @peterlasinger, Managing Partner at 3VC, brought clarity, experience, and founder-first thinking to the grill — no deck, no fluff, just real insight.
AI Won't Kill the Junior Developer. It Will Kill the Unimaginative Investor. Silicon Valley, led by figures like Marc Andreessen, claims AI will automate all jobs except venture capitalists, whose "human" roles seem immune. This self-serving view is wrong. AI doesn't replace talent; it enhances it. Revolutionary AI empowers great professionals to excel, not novices to create mediocrity. It’s the difference between a liability and a productivity tool. The real risk is to investors, not adaptable developers. Investors stuck in old paradigms, unable to distinguish gimmicks from true multipliers, face extinction. They ask, "Who does this replace?" instead of "Who does this empower, and by how much?" The future belongs to companies that augment workforces, not displace them. Returns will go to investors who identify empowerment, not those betting on replacement. Unimaginative VCs, blind to this shift, are the ones at risk.
Forget AGI. The future of AI is the "Iron Man suit"—tools that augment, not replace. The generational companies will be those that build: 🕹️ An "Autonomy Slider" to give users control & build trust. 💻 An intuitive GUI for today's "command line" prompt. The opportunity isn't replacing humans, but creating the perfect human-AI partnership. Are we too obsessed with full autonomy? #AI #Startups #VC #ProductDesign
Nice - my AI startup school talk is now up! Chapters: 0:00 Imo fair to say that software is changing quite fundamentally again. LLMs are a new kind of computer, and you program them *in English*. Hence I think they are well deserving of a major version upgrade in terms of
For decades, innovation in the physical world was stuck waiting for simulations. That era is over. A new paper from the #EmmiAI research team (arXiv:2502.09692v3) dismantles this bottleneck. What's now possible: - CAD to simulation instantly - Supercomputing on a single GPU - Physics-guaranteed results This isn't just faster—it's a new industrial flywheel. The real, defensible value is in foundational models that change the physics of an industry, not thin wrappers. #AI #DeepTech #Simulation #Innovation

Exciting News: @alxndrmrrps Promoted to Associate at @threeVC Congratulations, Alexander – we are incredibly excited to support you in this next chapter of your journey at 3VC!
@derbrutkasten What excites us most about Emmi AI is their capacity to tackle previously unsolvable engineering challenges. By delivering 'GPT Moments' in industrial simulations, they're empowering engineers to push the boundaries of what's possible. @threeVC
Exciting news! Federico has been promoted to Principal at 3VC ! His relentless dedication to founders, key roles in investments like @fundcraft_lu & @simpleclub, and the trust he’s built across our ecosystem make this an obvious next step. Huge congrats, Federico - onward! #FoundersFirst #VC @threeVC
It was a pleasure sharing my @threeVC experiences and insights on follow-on rounds—challenges, best practices, and more—alongside @cwintoniak and Lisa Pallweber at the #investaustria Lounge. The engaged crowd of investors made it even better! Key Takeaways: 1. Always plan for the next round (or equity event). 2. Alignment is critical—founders, angels, and (strategic) investors may have different priorities. 3. Keep your options open to work with people you respect for the long haul.
Big news from @Klarna : they ditched 1,200 #SaaS tools, including @salesforce , not to kill SaaS, but to rethink it. Why? Fragmented data was choking their #AI experiments. Enter graph tech (eg. @neo4j ) and a unified knowledge stack - productivity soared. Klarna CEO Sebastian Siemiatkowski says this isn’t SaaS’s end, but a wake-up call: consolidate, go AI-first, or fade. Salesforce could still win big.
Yes, we did shut down Salesforce a year ago, as we have many SaaS providers—an internal estimate is about 1,200 SaaS shut down. No, I don't think it is the end of Salesforce; might be the opposite. Here is what actually happened and how/why we originally intended to NOT share
Most chase 10x growth, but true VC wins are 50x+. The key? A must-have product, scalable sales, and a big market. No clarity? No deal. How do you assess growth?
We have raised a $60M Series B to power the next generation of AI-driven B2B software! A huge thank you to our investors — Nextalia Ventures, @NFX, @QEDInvestors, @endeavor_global, @645ventures, @threeVC, @GruppoCDP, The Techshop, @PrimoVc, and i80 Group — for their support. With more than 120,000+ businesses relying on our tools, this funding accelerates our mission to build AI-powered, automation-first solutions. A new chapter begins. Let’s build. 💚 Press release in the thread. 👇🏻 #ShopCircle #AI #B2B #SeriesBFunding
