Trend Tuesday: Disruptive Startups Shaping the Future Today TechCrunch’s list of disruptive startups for 2024 puts a spotlight on innovation. Here are topics which particularly resonate with me - proof of what’s possible when data, AI, and brilliant engineering come together: 🏥 Healthcare Abridge transforms doctor-patient conversations into structured notes, helping reduce IT overload for doctors and improve care. As Eric Topol  says, freeing doctors from keyboards can slash healthcare costs and boost outcomes. A simple but powerful use of AI in medicine! ⚡️ Energy Innovations  Sila is revolutionizing battery chemistry for a greener future, while KoBold Metals (I like the witty name) uses AI to discover critical minerals powering renewables. Two centuries after Volta’s first battery, there’s still untapped potential for better energy density and stability. We need this progress quickly, and I am happy and grateful to see these technologies advance. 🚚 Logistics & Trucking Waabi’s AI platform aims to solve labor shortages in trucking, a global challenge. As the Economist noted, industries are struggling to fill roles as older workers retire and younger ones avoid tough conditions. By the way, many other industries find themselves in similar situations and turn to AI to address these challenges. Waabi’s multidisciplinary AI approach offers a smarter, safer path forward. 🏃♂️ Ultra-Fast Delivery  Zepto delivers groceries in under 10 minutes in India—blending speed, convenience, and sustainability. Localized supply chains, electric bikes, and fewer consumer trips highlight the environmental promise of fast delivery. As William Gibson said: “The future is already here—it’s just not evenly distributed.” TechCrunch’s list reminds us what’s possible today when bold thinking meets technology.
