"Employees know that the companies they should be working for have lower valuations that have more upside.” Falcon acknowledged that won’t last forever: “When we raise our Series C next, it’s likely our valuation will go up—the question is, is it in line with the revenue so that the next time it will continue to go up? If it is, that’s fine. If not, we’re back to the same problem." William Falcon, CEO of Lightning AI, speaks to Sharon Goldman and Allie Garfinkle of Fortune about the challenges presented by an exuberant fundraising market, in "For AI startups, lofty valuations could be a hurdle in the race for talent": ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gDuHarpe Also featured in this article: • Matt Schulman, CEO of data compensation platform Pave • David Katz, a partner at Radical Ventures • May Habib, CEO of enterprise generative AI platform Writer • Aishwarya Srinivasan, a senior advisor at Microsoft for Startups • Renen Hallak, CEO of AI infrastructure platform VAST Data • Jett Fein, general partner at VC firm Headline • Matt Turck, a partner at FirstMark #Startups #Fundraising #VC

Magic has raised a total of $465 million so far, mostly from US investors obviously. Meet Eric Steinberger and Sebastian De Ro, the brains behind the AI startup. Magic’s AI can write its own code, bringing us closer to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). While the Seed ($5M) & Series A ($23M) had a small participation from European investors. In the Series B ($117M) & Series C ($320M), US investors dominate. 💸 ROI VENTURES is proud to have been one of Magic's first backers. It is worth noting that all 4 funding rounds took place within 2 years, with a team of 23 people. 📈 Despite the lack of growth funding in Europe, deeptech AI companies like Magic are relying on partnerships with big cloud providers like Google. Another example of this trend is Mistral, which has also secured backing from US investors and collaborates with both Microsoft and Google. It is simply not possible to build a foundational AI model without huge funding, partnerships and access to talent. Aleph Alpha, a German promising AI company, recently stepped back from the race due to high costs and regulatory uncertainty. 😬 But there are also many startups working on solutions at the application layer. And we need to find ways to fund their growth in Europe. The positive side? European leaders are increasingly recognizing the importance of venture capital. The recent appointment of a Startup Commissioner offer hope for future European tech growth. Lastly, I’m grateful to see that Magic’s story and the broader discussion about Europe’s innovation gap made it to Die Presse am Sonntag by Susanne Bickel & David Freudenthaler. 🙌 #innovation #startups #venturecapital
