#AXXAers a short(ie #shortsqeeze hopefully) #update on one of $AXXA’s #VC companies:
1/

$AXXA Great #zoom call over the weekend w/our #French #VentureCapital Office. We received confirmation of a #USD $250,000 #INVESTMENT into one of our early-stage startups from a reputable international #VC funder.
(let's focusing on #VC before we move to other divisions)
2/
$AXXA Our #French #VC Group will be increasing its stake in this #startup. For confidentiality reasons, we will not disclose the name of the #funder until the second #stage #Funding round is complete.
3/
A little about #axxaVC: $AXXA #VC company invests in a range of technologies including #Robotics, Hardware, IT, #Health & #Biotech, and #VR and #AI technologies. These are areas where the direct application of technology makes a real, measurable difference in people's lives.
4/
$AXXA The #VC subsidiary company that just received its Second Round funding develops #Virtual #Reality (#VR), #Augmented #Reality (AR), and #Mixed #Reality (#MR) technologies. Their #technologies are cost-effective motion trackers for multiplayer full immersion #VR zones.
5/
$AXXA The system uses a mix of hardware and software based on inexpensive serial radio-inertial modules. This helps integrators who build and deploy #VR zones reach new customer segments that are currently unaffordable.
6/
The tech can simultaneously track up to 4 markers on the human body, and the system has been used commercially in movies and theaters. In fact, the first pilot project was with a high-end visual effects studio that shoots for feature #films, #commercials, and #musicvideos .
7/
Second Round funding round allows the subsidiary to develop the next layer of #technology and work on implementing them with their #corporate #partners.
8/END

1/ I'm thrilled to announce the launch of my new website, a one-stop shop for all the content I'm creating.

There you'll find links to all my podcasts, the TTMYGH newsletter, and other exciting future projects.

2/ In 2020, I reignited my passion for interviewing brilliant people by launching The Grant Williams Podcast in various forms, including The End Game, The Super Terrific Happy Hour, and The Narrative Game.


3/ Starting February 1, I'm taking the bold step of moving these podcasts completely behind a paywall.

For the very affordable price of only $10 a month, listeners can gain access to the Copper Tier of
https://t.co/fxUfH8maI4, which includes all current & future podcasts.


4/ Why am I doing this? First and foremost, I aspire to create VALUABLE content. By definition, if something is priced at $0, it isn’t valuable. The time, effort and creativity that goes into these episodes is substantial. To keep doing them properly, they can no longer be free.

5/ I also strongly believe content creators should be able to make a living creating content. If everything is free, that’s not possible. I never seriously considered accepting outside sponsors – complete integrity is too critical to me.
