Physical AI could be a $50 trillion market, but industrial adoption follows equipment investment cycles, not hype cycles. In @FortuneMagazine, SG client SE Ventures’ Amit Chaturvedy explains where the realistic near-term opportunities are and why patience is a competitive advantage. fortune.com/2026/07/08/phy…

You can't fix a fifty-year-old problem with fifty-year-old tech. Data center demand is exposing the real bottleneck: not power, but getting capacity where it needs to be. Enter linear generators. No combustion. No grid wait. Already commercial. As @vkhosla puts it: "Every sector that defines American competitiveness, from manufacturing and defense to healthcare and logistics, runs on power." It's the same terrain our clients are building in. More in @Fortune: fortune.com/2026/06/30/vin…

Gene Berdichevsky's (@silagene)'s thesis: climate change gets solved when clean energy becomes the better economic choice — not just the better moral one. @SilaNanotech is building toward that at GWh-scale in Moses Lake.

When a record-breaking IPO becomes a fashion reference, you know it's bigger than business news. @Reformation tapped into the cultural significance of @SpaceX going public within minutes of opening bell. The brands that win are the ones who know their audience well enough to spot the moment and move.

He had an executive assistant when he was scaling the company he eventually sold to @Zendesk. Most people don't have that support, so @dojideon built @EspaLabs to change that.

America’s battery problem was never just about batteries. It was about supply chains, manufacturing, and energy independence.

Most AI assistants suggest. @Espa executes — and it does it entirely through your messaging app. @FastCompany's @harrymccracken spent a week with it. Handles calendar, inbox, follow-ups — all over iMessage, WhatsApp, or Slack. No new app. No new interface. His verdict? It's useful enough to pay for another month. Read the review: bit.ly/3PFqIAK

Your AI just told you what it remembered. Not all of it, though. @hiddenlayersec's Malcolm Harkins in @VentureBeat on what that means for enterprise governance. 👇 bit.ly/3Ruwp5a

We've worked alongside @dojideon for years at @forethought_ai. When he said he was building something new, we were proud to be in his corner again @EspaLabs is built on a simple truth: the best operators don't win alone. They have the support that lets them focus on what actually moves the needle. Deon built that — for everyone. Congrats to the whole Espa team. Honored to be part of the journey!

The most interesting companies right now aren't chasing the obvious bets. Last week at @TechCrunch's StrictlyVC in SF: @Uber's CTO on turning its global driver network into a real-world data layer for the AV industry. @Replit's CEO on building toward a billion-dollar run rate while competitors eye $60B exits. @TDKVentures' Nicolas Sauvage on why the most consequential AI bets right now are the ones nobody else is funding yet. The pattern across all three: conviction in a direction most people aren't looking.

Great day for SG at @StartupGrind in the Bay Area. Candid conversations on raising capital, building AI-native products, and what scaling actually costs — from the operators living it. Three takeaways: capital follows proof, not pitch. AI-native is a foundation, not a feature. Candor over polish. #StartupGrind

We moved early on “token anxiety” to position our client, @CloudBees, at the center of the conversation, turning a fast-moving trend into a timely @axios interview.

AI isn’t slowing down. But the systems around it are starting to show strain. Energy. Infrastructure. Human capacity. The story isn’t just acceleration anymore. It’s what happens when everything else can’t keep up. mgstn.ly/4ceLdwR
