Welcome to Equity, a podcast dedicated to exploring the business side of startups by delving into the numbers and nuances behind the headlines. In this Friday episode, we delve into the most significant stories and themes of the week.
As we bid farewell to another week, we also close the chapter on the trial of former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried. However, our focus extends beyond just the SBF news on today’s episode of Equity that covers a wide range of news highlights.
This week, with Kirsten Korosec, Mary Ann Azevedo, and Alex Wilhelm on board, we explore Robinhood’s new credit card and its implications for major tech companies, Fisker’s recent challenges, and Databricks’ investment of $10 million in a new AI model.
But that’s not all. We also dive into two startups focused on children. One aims to teach kids how to create music, while the other focuses on reducing waste and supporting budget-conscious parents. Lastly, we take a closer look at the identity of unicorn founders and a new $100 million fund backing climate tech.
