Venture folk must learn that code can scale, but only atoms can defend. Real moats aren’t built on servers - they’re forged in factories, welded in shipyards, and tested in the real world. This is the way 🇺🇸
another reason why transforming the american industrial base into a cost effective alternative via new scalable and tech-enabled production is one of the best bets for venture dollars right now
Pennsylvania is calling. The great Keystone State.
Big shipbuilding news… Hanwha Shipping orders LNG carrier from Hanwha Philly Shipyard, marking the first LNG carrier ordered in the U.S. in 50 years
Float. Foil. Fly.
Hell of a cover from @AviationWeek's Editor's Picks! REGENT Defense is on.
One man’s Seed is another man’s A. Labels are vibes.
everyone seems to have a different definition of what "pre-seed" / "seed" actually means
This isn’t optimism. It’s duty. From @JoshuaSteinman’s “we’re going to win” to the rising camaraderie of builders across America. Now is the time to produce hardware, software, and deterrence. Our enemies are mobilizing. We either outbuild them or kneel.
Things don’t get built unless we build them
PA DMV texting me from a +63 country code. My guy. You’re closer to Manila than Mechanicsburg.
We backed @armada_ai two years ago to help steer the future of edge compute and connectivity. Proud to be part of the crew building the infrastructure for tomorrow’s industrial networks. @danwrightSF @jtrunyan @gbthevc @RayyanIslam1 defensedaily.com/armada-announc…
If you’re not locking down your factory, you’re leaving America exposed. That’s why we backed @JoshuaSteinman and @GalvanickCo. Protecting industrial infrastructure is warfare in the 21st century. No more soft targets.
factory owners/operators: please take your digital security more seriously, if you aren't currently and have likely vulnerabilities please DM and i can refer providers. also even if you don't plan on defense work, it may be good to check the cmmc reqs.
Critically important conversation in the U.S. Capitol today about the SHIPS for America Act, U.S. #Shipbuilding, and how we build our maritime industrial base. A few take aways: 1. Innovative maritime designs is the key to unlocking our shipbuilding renaissance. @regentcraft…
Rewatched Tenet and this line stuck with me: "We all believe we’d run into the burning building… but until we feel that heat, we can never know." Conviction is common. Courage is rare.
Find smart people are give them agency, autonomy, and authority
Met Billy in 2022 and knew then he’d build something that breaks the mold. We're long on @regentcraft
Proud to be an 8090 Industries portco - these guys hustle @GaruthAcharya @gbthevc @RayyanIslam1
Really outstanding time at @reindsummit this week. Extra appreciation to the various public and private partners who stopped by @atomic_inc We will succeed because of the visionaries putting together this event, AND the partners executing with us in industry Let’s talk parts!
I couldn't walk 5 steps @reindsummit without running into a customer, investor, partner, or prospective collaborator I only met on the internet. Huge kudos to the team on 10x'ing what was already an awesome event. Until next year, keep building! 🛠️
very few things hit like giving a founder their first check. go into debt if you have to.
