When Connie Loizos and the TechCrunch team come to LA, you know the event is going to be action-packed and standing room only. Team Rosebud had a blast attending last Thursday’s #StrictlyVC event at one of LA’s trendiest work and social spaces, NeueHouse Hollywood. It definitely struck a chord when Tekedra N. Mawakana, co-CEO of Waymo, said that “40,000 people not making it home for dinner each year is unacceptable” and that “it’s a privilege to object because you have options.” Despite all the self-driving naysayers, we can’t refute the social benefits it brings, and how it actually makes getting around safer and much more acceptable. Trae Stephens talked about everything from Founders Fund’s “hands-off” approach to working with founders to all things defense tech @Anduril Industries. Describing #ElonMusk as a “once in a generation character,” Stephens acknowledged the public’s concerns about him but said, “When you go above certain IQ points, the tradeoffs become quite severe.” It was also great to hear a VC’s perspective on AI from Faraz Fatemi at Lightspeed, which has been investing in #AI for 20+ years, including its biggest seed round yet in Mistral AI, the formidable #OpenAI challenger. “AI has brought investing in hardware very much back in style,” said Fatemi. Perhaps the most exciting part of the event was an up-close look at rabbit inc. R1, which was the biggest breakout product of 2024 at #CES this year — leading the pack in the new frontier of #AI-native devices with its LAM (large action model). We completely agree with CEO Jesse Lyu who said that entrepreneurship is not about having the absolute best idea or perfect solution, it is about “betting the odds” and “ultimate survival.” Lyu went on to say that founders should focus on what they do, rather than worrying about the competition. This is the startup spirit we share with all our clients. #rabbitr1 #strictlyvc #techcrunch #lightspeed #waymo Photo Credit: Slava Blazer Photography (1~4)

Acknowledge, Apologize, and Amend. Acknowledging a mistake, offering a sincere apology, and making necessary corrections is how reputation management should be handled following a public gaffe. It sounds simple, yet few get it right. It requires a CEO who can put aside their ego and a communications team capable of aligning all stakeholders. The Teams at OnePlus, Sparkpr, and Spenser Blank set a great example of how to own up and respond to an issue. Their handling of a marketing mistake during the highly anticipated 12R launch demonstrates a masterclass in owning and resolving a situation, setting a benchmark for others to follow. 🌟👏 #ReputationManagement #Leadership #CorporateCommunication #MarketingExcellence https://lnkd.in/ecFdf2Gf
