We're thrilled to announce our new funds ($5.75B total) - $1.75B to continue supporting exceptional Early Stage founders, and $4B to scale up our Growth practice. @AnthropicAI, @Waymo, @FireworksAI_HQ, @fal, @AbridgeHQ, @WeAreLegora, @elise_ai, @evenuplaw, @upwindsecurity - just a sampling of the Growth investments I've been fortunate to work on. Fired up to use these funds to serve and support more great companies and teams.
In my 31-year career, I've never been more excited to come to work. With this team, and at this moment in time. It's been historic. And, the best is yet to come...
New funds are here 🚀 $5.75 billion in new capital to continue the work in the AI era.
Forged in steel. Building what’s next: youtu.be/uj-JAd2SE2I

I see it as a point on the LLM pareto optimal curve in a regime that had a large revealed latent demand (no thinking, single token, low latency acceptable intelligence) that was under-invested into because of a race to higher intelligence.

It’s easy to dismiss Jev it as “just a classifier”.
But people (me included) who have been training encoder-style models for classification for many years know they were usually special-purpose and limited in some way.
The breakthrough of Jev is that it generalizes well.
And I’d say the secret sauce is probably more in the data than in the training algorithm. (Plus a nice API design on top of it.)
poor guy claim to have built Jev a year ago but no one cared, and now Jev stole all the thunder
many people are saying “you gotta tell your story” or “marketing is important”, and they just completely missed what actually made the difference here
i just looked into this laya model laya.convaiinnovations.com/ and:
- it only supports 512-1k context… a lot of use cases won’t fit at all
- evaluating the model directly shows its accuracy is as good as a coin flip. in order to get good results, you need to first fine tune it
i’m sorry, but that’s not Jev
there’s a massive gap between an interesting research and a useful product
you can “tell your story” all you like, but you can’t blame Jev for stealing your thunder when Jev did all the work to make a well-packaged solution anyone can just grab and go
Jev is not completely new from an academic sense, just like how ChatGPT was not the first LLM
don’t underestimate the effort and value in putting together something that’s actually good enough for adoption - it makes all the difference

We are thrilled to welcome Suvo Sarkar onboard as our Strategic Advisor. 🎉
A true legend of banking and digital transformation, Suvo brings 38+ years of banking experience across Asia and the Middle East - including 11 years at Emirates NBD, where he was Senior EVP & Group Head, Retail Banking and Wealth Management. At Emirates NBD, he co-led one of the region's most ambitious digital overhauls and founded Liv, the Middle East's first digital bank. He now leads 3D Advisory and serves as a senior advisor to McKinsey & Co and Mastercard.
We're building toward a future where banks don't just analyze customer data, they act on it, autonomously, in real time. Suvo has been on the other side of exactly this challenge, and his perspective will be invaluable as we build.
Beyond his stellar career, Suvo is a celebrated thought leader and storyteller, hosting the award-winning Money Majlis podcast and earning recognition as the Digital Leader of the Middle East by MIT Sloan Review. He brings not just expertise, but a genuine passion for the future of financial services.
Welcome, Suvo! We are honoured and energized to have your wisdom and vision with us on this journey.😊

#WATCH | Noida, UP: On the cancellation of the NEET-UG 2026 exam, Educator Khan Sir says, "First of all, the CBI should be removed from this case. It is beyond the CBI's capability. The CBI is like a Nokia mobile... A Supreme Court judge should be involved. The Prime Minister's Office itself should get involved... We must not view this merely as a single examination. The national reputation is being damaged, and the morale of the students is being shattered..."

For most of the SaaS era, martech platforms won by shipping applications.
That era is ending.
The most sophisticated marketing ops leaders I've talked to recently don't live inside their MAPs anymore. They're building their own apps and agents on top of them — treating Marketo, HubSpot, and Salesforce as back-end infrastructure rather than cockpits.
Jason Lemkin put it well: "The CRM decision is no longer a CRM decision. It's an AI infrastructure decision."
The new build-vs-buy equation: buy infrastructure, build differentiation.
My latest newsletter explores what this migration means for marketing ops leaders, platform vendors, and agencies — including why the hardest migration isn't yours, it's theirs.
