The Israeli video personalisation company is launching Strata, a foundation model it says produces separate, editable layers for text, animation, footage, and actors rather than a single flat file. It’s a direct challenge to the architectural limits of diffusion-based video generators. Every AI vide

The UK job search engine has acquired the employment divisions of two multi-vertical classifieds aggregators from Lifull Connect, bolstering its presence in Spain, Italy, and Latin America as its Japanese parent offloads non-real-estate assets. Adzuna has acquired the jobs verticals of Trovit and Mi
The Munich startup is building what it calls a ‘context graph’, a continuously updated map of how operational decisions actually get made inside an enterprise, drawn from millions of real cases rather than documentation that may never have been written. There is a particular friction point in every
Axios reports that OpenAI could secure 5 gigawatts of electricity from Helion Energy by 2030, scaling to 50 gigawatts by 2035. Altman has stepped down as Helion’s board chair and recused himself from the deal talks, an echo of the same move he made at nuclear startup Oklo last year. OpenAI is in adv
Every year since roughly 2018, the cybersecurity industry has declared that passwords are dying. Passkeys, biometrics, and FIDO2 hardware tokens would replace them. The promise was elegant: no more breached vaults, no more credential stuffing, no more sticky notes on monitors. It has not happened. N
The inbox has long been the softest entry point in enterprise security. As phishing campaigns grow more convincing, more personalised, and increasingly powered by generative AI, the tools designed to stop them have been locked in a reactive cycle: wait for the attack, analyse it, respond. IRONSCALES
The Prague and Krakow firm, whose earliest bets include UiPath and ElevenLabs, is doubling down on pre-seed in Central and Eastern Europe and its global diaspora, with a six-partner team and a $1–5M typical cheque.

JAAQ, the London-based digital healt
The Paris-Milan VC’s new vehicle is the latest sign that European investors are hardwiring defence into their deeptech strategy. There is a version of this story that could have been told three years ago and would have raised eyebrows in polite European venture circles: a deeptech fund, backed by a
A new entrant into the crowded but urgent European air defence startup space has closed its first significant round, as capital chases the continent’s most pressing military capability shortfall. The phrase ‘air defence gap’ has become one of the defining anxieties of European security policy in the
A quieter week by headline standards, but one that reveals a great deal about where European venture capital is quietly concentrating: AI agents for physical industries, agritech automation, and the growing operator-to-VC pipeline. What the week of 16-22 March delivered was something different in te
For most of the past decade, the received wisdom in European venture capital was simple enough: if you wanted a serious fund, you needed a partnership. The large teams, the committee structures, the distributed decision-making, these were treated not merely as operational choices but as a kind of in
The indictment of Super Micro’s co-founder exposes not just a $2.5 billion scheme, it exposes a system that was never built to stop one. Somewhere in a rented warehouse in Southeast Asia, a man was using a hair dryer on a server box. Not to dry it. To loosen the adhesive on a serial-number sticker,
Automattic has added write capabilities to WordPress.com’s MCP integration, giving AI agents like Claude and ChatGPT the ability to create posts, build pages, manage comments, and restructure content, all through natural conversation, with human approval at every step. For most of the past six month

Fourteen months after the Digital Operational Resilience Act became enforceable, Europe’s financial institutions are running out of room to improvise. The regulation, which took effect on January 17, 2025, was supposed to mark the beginning of a new era in digital risk management across the EU. Inst
The San Francisco B2B sales platform, which recently approached $200M in ARR and appointed a new CEO, absorbs the revenue intelligence startup’s signal-layer technology to deepen its enterprise push. Apollo.io has acquired Pocus, a revenue intelligence startup that helps sales teams identify and pri
The Rijen-based startup, which retrofits existing sprayers with nozzle-by-nozzle PWM control, will use the capital to commercialise its LeapEye camera system and scale LeapBox internationally from Europe to Canada. The idea behind BBLeap is disarmingly simple: most agricultural sprayers treat an ent
