Most future European unicorns 🦄 will be built in the East, because #CEElicon Valley is based in Warsaw, Poland. That's why I invest in top founders from the region. Here's why: https://t.co/OOT0x1eAgl #ceevalley #venturexapital #startups #emergingeurope

What is the fastest way to test if a founder understands their market? I always ask: “What could go wrong?” If the answer is “basically nothing,” the founder doesn’t understand the market, the risks, or the game they’re playing. #investableFounders

If your first market is Poland, your ambitions aren’t global. Global founders start with global markets. They design for scale from day one. Are your ambitions truly global? #investableFounders

VC nie inwestuje w "dobre, przynoszące zyski firmy". VC inwestuje w takie firmy, które mogą zostać smokiem, czyli zwrócić cały fundusz jednym exitem. To wymaga pewnej umowy między VC, a founderem. Celem jest bardzo szybki wzrost i dominacja globalnego rynku, dlatego

why is it always “how much ARR?” and never “how ARR you?”

#1 Angel Network in Central & Eastern Europe is looking for founders for their #4 Pitch Day. Don't be late :)

Przy całej sympatii dla @piotrek_nowy za każdym razem zainwestuję w Monster, a nie w https://t.co/EcrGz6UBjM, nawet jeśli ten pierwszy miał tylko 10% szansy na zdominowanie światowego rynku. Bo tak działa ekonomika VC. Lokalni winnerzy nie zwracają funduszy, nie zostają smokami.

Nie smęcić. Wesprzeć psychicznie. Nie przeszkadzać! Połączyć z kolejnymi inwestorami, gdy founder zbiera rundę. Czegoś jeszcze oczekujecie od VC?

Polska scena innowacji jest wielkości Ohio, dlaczego więc dziwimy się że najlepsi przedsiębiorcy technologiczni wyjeżdżają do Kalifornii? #venturecapital #startup #The5

In 1519, Hernán Cortés set out to conquer Mexico with just 617 men and 10 ships. Shortly after landing, he did something that looked insane — he burned his own ships. No retreat. No plan B. Cortés knew exactly what he was doing. He wanted to remove even the idea of going back

Kraków is world's cleanest city according to tourists in a report made by @RadicalStorage. Warsaw also made the top 10 as well as Prague. Full list: 1. Kraków 🇵🇱 2. Sharjah 🇦🇪 3. Singapore 🇸🇬 4. Warsaw🇵🇱 5. Doha🇶🇦 6. Riyadh🇸🇦 7. Prague🇨🇿 8. Muscat🇴🇲 9. Dubai 🇦🇪 10. Fukuoka🇯🇵

Pod moim ostatnim wpisem o dużych firmach technologicznych otwierających biura w Warszawie pojawiło się sporo komentarzy o „drenażu mózgów”. Że najlepsi inżynierowie będą teraz pracować dla zagranicznych korporacji zamiast budować polskie firmy. Pozwolę sobie się z tym nie

With @netflix it's even more interesting as they recently asked a number of SF engineers to either relocate to Warsaw or resign. Most new recruitment happens at the Warsaw office now.

This is how @OpenAI got a Warsaw office:

@MistralAI -

Yes, I know @NanoBanana did a poor job with the logos, but I did not have the patience with Canva. Sorry, AI apparently still sucks, time for the Warsaw engineers to fix it ;)

Warsaw quietly became the engineering hub of Europe. The city is home to engineering offices of top global AI and tech companies: 1. OpenAI 2. Mistral AI 3. ElevenLabs 4. Google 5. Snowflake 6. Netflix 7. Affirm  8. Dropbox  9. Box  10. Amazon (AWS) 11. Microsoft 12. Meta 13.

Great idea, but can this scale? Err.. yes! In the age of agentic AI, almost anything can scale. We've just invested in a one-person influencer agency. Impossible only a few years back. The real limit isn’t technology — it’s the founder’s imagination and execution capability.

🚀 Opportunities in the Mistral Warsaw 🧜‍♀️ office! We’re hiring AI Scientists 🧑‍🔬 and Research Engineers🆕to join our team.

Do you need to raise venture capital for my startup? Yes. Every startup needs capital… unless you don’t care about speed. You won’t need any funding only If you’re not aiming high enough. #investableFounders

What a founder must bring to get my attention? The strongest founders come with industry experience and a non-obvious insight about a big painful problem tech can solve. If customers want to pay before the product exists — I’m listening. #investableFounders
