Yesterday’s Autumn Budget made one thing clear: growth capital is scaling up, but exit relief is tightening. Here are the 4 key takeaways every founder and investor needs to know (See thread) How do you see the new 25% equity threshold impacting your early-stage rounds?

Some of India’s sharpest builders started in dorm rooms instead of boardrooms, and our time at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani was proof. At Campus Connect 2026, we met the next generation of builders on a campus that has long been a launchpad for Indian founders. With Campus Connect is simple, we want to reach young builders and give them the head start and the push to build something remarkable. In that spirit, Manish Advani (@manishadvani12) sat down with Kshitij Khandelwal (@kshitijgokul) of Pixxel (@PixxelSpace) to share his entrepreneurial journey, one that began in a BITS dorm room. Hearing it from someone who walked the same corridors made the distance between a bold idea and a company feel a lot shorter. Kanishk Mehta, Shourya Sodhani, Shreedhar Malpani, and Akshat Singh from our team spent the day in one-on-one coffee chats with students to help them understand the world of venture capital. Huge thanks to everyone at BITS Pilani who made this happen. We can’t wait to see what you build. ✨

AI doesn’t learn facts the way humans do. It learns statistical patterns from large amounts of data and uses context to generate the most plausible response. That means output quality depends heavily on what sits underneath it. Follow @LindaGrass0 for more insights 💡

AI can warn a maintenance team that a machine may fail, but McKinsey argues that the opportunity lies in what the organization does next. A prediction is useful when it changes how maintenance is planned and carried out. That requires more than a model. Microblog by @antgrasso Suppose a warning arrives days before a possible breakdown. The repair still waits because the schedule has not changed or the required part is unavailable. The model has supplied information that the process cannot yet use. Who can act on that warning while there is still time? McKinsey estimates potential cost reductions and additional uptime across asset-heavy industries. Its analysis emphasizes redesigning the maintenance process so that insights can influence decisions and lead to timely interventions. I would put maintenance teams at the center of that redesign, giving them access to information while they are planning work and enough authority to adjust priorities. #IndustrialAI #Maintenance

EIS investment is at its lowest level since 2013-14. 51% of angel and seed deals are still in London and the South East. Our Autumn Budget submission, already with the Chancellor, sets out four pillars to change that. Read the paper: eu1.hubs.ly/H0zqBkC0
