🚀 Excited to kick off the first of our Founder Catalyst events, the FC Office Hours! This will be an opportunity for an informal gathering via zoom where we will exchange ideas, discuss the latest trends and generally catch up! 

😀 For our first session, I am incredibly excited to have Andrew Peterson join as our special guest! Andrew is the co-founder and CEO of Signal Sciences, which was acquired by Fastly for $775M. The format will be a completely open conversation on how to go from zero to exit and all questions are welcome!

A question I often get from founders: "How do I know if my engineering team is doing a good job?" 

My friend Dana Lawson, CTO of Netlify, and I discuss how to keep a pulse on your technical output and team morale in this episode of Never Too Early. 💡

The next leap forward isn't artificial, but autonomous. As we hit the midpoint of 2024, the excitement around autonomous AI agents is undeniable. While we're not quite at the stage where AI manages everything in our daily lives, we're making strides that hint at a transformative future. Here are some insights from my latest blog post describing how autonomous AI agents are poised to reshape how businesses operate:

- Copilots are reactive. Agents are proactive.
- Building agents isn't just about better LLMs - it's engineering digital cognitive architectures.
- Early adopters are already seeing transformative results in security, sales, finance, and general business operations. The ROI to come is real.
