At my coldest moments over the next few weeks, I may rue not having more clients in Greece, Southern Italy, and Bali. Flying to Berlin shortly to meet with new deeptech clients, before speaking at GoWest - Nordic Venture Capital Forum in Gothenburg and then TECHARENA in Stockholm in February. As ever, I’m grateful for intros to journalists and entrepreneurs building in climate, health, education, femtech, deeptech etc. Yes they may be cold, but the amount of innovation coming out of these ecosystems is inspiring. Sweden, for example, was Europe's standout AI success story in 2025 - for more information, see this Fortune piece from Sana's Oscar Täckström: https://lnkd.in/en_YQZEG Now off to pack some gloves.
