"Wabi sabi" and the value of imperfection… Last week, we had the privilege to hear first hand from founders and leaders who've built products - such as Monzo Bank, Deliveroo, TrueLayer, Citymapper, Dropbox, Finisterre, PANGAIA, Stripe, Olio and Product Hunt. One main takeaway that stuck with us is TrueLayer’s CTO Luca Martinetti of integrating Wabi Sabi - the Japanese art of impermanence, into TrueLayer’s technical team’s values and processes. Nothing lasts, nothing is finished, nothing is perfect is a healthy way to build your product and not get stuck in trying to find perfection in something that’s meant to be imperfect. Congratulations for the amazing event Connect Ventures and thank you Rory Stirling for inviting us.

Here is what our 2024 goals are... Coming into 2024, it’s good to stop and reflect on some of the milestones our team achieved last year: 1) Raised $1.5M from our partners at Eleven Ventures and Fuel Ventures 🚀 to support us on our mission to power the M&A, VC and PE deal workflow. 2) Received 700+ requests for early access showing the magnitude of the problem of mundane tasks in these industries and the opportunity top firms see in Generative AI to make smarter decisions. 3) Had over 110 in-depth meetings with top teams in M&A banks, VC, and PE funds since the announcement of the investment in November, which helped us get a strong grasp of the biggest industry problems and develop a solution that tackles them. 4) Featured in over 50 news publications, including high-profile mentions from Sifted, Business Insider, Fortune and The Information. 5) Filled in most of the slots in our strategic Insider Program with some of the biggest names in the industry. 🎯 Our focus for 2024 continues to be around: > Actively listening to feedback from clients and Insider Program participants to build a leading platform that is tailored for the industry. > Unlocking efficiencies across a broader spectrum of processes in M&A, VC and PE. > Pushing the boundaries of AI research to deliver a “must-have” solution that mirrors professionals in the industry. Here’s to a 2024 that builds on the learnings from 2023. 👉 If you are interested in joining our Insider Program as well: https://eilla.ai/

Glad to have been invited to the Oxbridge AI Challenge and have our CEO Nikola Lazarov attend the event. We’re honoured to be part of this paradigm shift, surrounded by some amazing companies and alumni from these top universities.

We met teams from 63 M&A banks, VC and PE funds in the last 2 weeks.💡 Here are the 3 biggest takeaways: 1️⃣ Industry Focus on Efficiency Across All Levels and Sectors ↳ We are noticing that with the current economic environment, there is a need for efficiency not just at the junior level to automate mundane tasks, but also at senior level for support with decision-making. Gartner predicted that “by 2025 more than 75% of VC and early-stage investor executive reviews will be informed using artificial intelligence (AI) and data analytics.” This prediction appears to be on par with what we’re noticing in M&A and PE. 2️⃣ Strong Market Pull for AI ↳ The industry’s embrace of Generative AI is undeniable. Successful M&A banks, VC and PE funds are actively looking to employ advanced tools to elevate their advisory role or improve investment choices. This isn’t a future trend - it’s the current state of play and with such strong interest it seems this reliance on data is only going to deepen. 3️⃣ Building In-House AI Solutions is Not Easy ↳ Crafting AI in-house is a prestige project with a costly price tag - developing accurate, reliable AI for the nuanced world of finance is very difficult. The scarcity of AI talent does not help either. Most firms building internally are struggling to deliver something that is viable or are only scraping the surface of what’s possible. In fact, we already have clients who after trying to build a solution internally, realized how daunting and expensive the task is and decided to choоse Eilla instead. 🚀 👉 If you are also interested to integrate Generative AI in your firm: https://eilla.ai/

120+ M&A banks, VC and PE funds in less than 5 days! 🚀 Since we announced our fundraising round we've received more than 120 early access requests from some of the leading financial industry names. These numbers and the overwhelming coverage we got from Business Insider, Sifted, Fortune and many more, only underscore the interest in using Generative AI to optimize the investment and M&A deal workflows. Together with our current clients and newly interested firms, we'll continue automating mundane daily tasks and enhancing complex decision making. 📈 👉 If you are interested in becoming an early adopter: https://eilla.ai/
