AI Founder Connect - Round 2
Feb 22, 2024
Walking around in Silicon Valley!! I found myself in the mighty and eternal Plug and Play Tech Center in the quiet and unassuming City of Sunnyvale - home of Dish Dash Restaurant & Cafe , my favorite restaurant in the Bay.
I knew we are in a round of stimulating thoughts when the word
"Dissatisfaction!" rose up in the room and came crashing down - The wise and contemplating Miko Matsumura announced as "one approach to…" - more on this later and no relations to #MickJagger, #KeithRichards or The Rolling Stones
Muklesur Bharuya (the English Banister) quoted Sir Winston Leonard Churchill and Billy Shakespeare.
Jordan Wahbeh doubled down on Churchill and said something about “walking in Hell…and keep on going”
Srini Pagidyala a founder compared his innovation to the invention/discovery of fire - lucky for him, copy and IP right expired on that one.
@Vitalii Sydorenko was perplexed, and rightfully so, by “If one is in Silicon Valley, how can one not find investors” (good point).
Seriously now,
AI Founders Connect – round 2 - Organized and well done by Muklesur Bharuya , all the way from the UK with industrial grade support from Vitalii Sydorenko 💪🇺🇦 assembled four investors and four companies and room full of colorful and experienced people.
The companies and impressions
Dubdub.ai - The Future of AI Dubbin - Crafting Voices, Unleashing Magic , presented by Rahul Garg . Nice, clean, clearish presentation, logical approach, and makes sense. Post revenue as also.
DarkHorse - Youth Sports Revolutionized: The Most Powerful Reel Builder In Sports Using AI – Impression - passionate, interesting, capable, well supported by athletes, relatable to parent with Kids, post revenue and well represented by Billy Brush - a lot of focus on saving time.
@Aigo.ai brings you one of the Most Intelligent AI chatbots. A mountain of passionate (as it should be), intriguing, complex yet simple, deep tech, long and short-term gains. Srini Pagidyala

The panel -
Most interesting - Miko Matsumura , gumi Cryptos Capital . Deep thoughts and compassionate approach, delightful to speak and debate with, good insight and Old Soul. Like to do business together Mike
Most exciting - Aaron Yang AV8 Ventures – pre-seed and seed, practical, ally to founders, sees lots of great ideas (by the dozen (his words)) and well balanced. An asset to the community.
Most impacting in dollars - Vedika Parikh Innovius Capital , the $10Million checks can burry all of us in one round. Series B and beyond and God bless her, as he journey is toughest. Reasonable and experienced- let us send you some deals. (how was the pizza!!!)
Just me – Jordan Wahbeh – PreA and A, deep tech, syndication through Network.VC - #Improvethehumancondition
Most European judge - Vitalii Sydorenko 💪🇺🇦 - Network VC, two time founder and a good exit, network.vc partner. My friend too. Fresh perspective
.
My choice for Improve the Human Condition is Dragon Fly by Government GPT
It does emanate from "Dissatisfaction" - why not enable our police force, protectors and friends to improve their living conditions - living here is literal.
Sensors to detect, alert and enable better support to these fine people as they deal with the worst humanity has to offer.
Dissatisfaction - the general idea is "Dissatisfaction" drive innovation citing #Ellon Musk, #Steve Jobs, and others... it is an intriguing thought and quite applicable to how we live these days.....
Ask me later about Death and Grocery shopping.!
