AI is advancing at a staggering pace, bringing new founders, startups, advisors, emerging funds, and world-class talent together who are looking for new opportunities every day. Communities are also forming both locally and globally, offering us more ways to connect and collaborate.
As the landscape evolves, finding a single, comprehensive handbook made up of the most prominent networks including which investors are actively investing in AI, the most notable operators advising early and later stage startups, the communities which are moving the ecosystem forward with proactive conversations taking place, and the latest and greatest startups throughout the AI ecosystem has proven challenging—from my own experience and conversations with many of you.
So, we created one for you: The Ultimate Startup AI Handbook.
A Once In A Lifetime Technology Ride
Since the release of ChatGPT in November 2022, when we published one of the first Generative AI landscapes, it was hard to predict how fast AI would evolve into becoming a global phenomenon. Not only has it spawned thousands of new startups, it has and will, fundamentally change the way we live and work in the future.
For example, AI is being adopted in the workplace across various functions, such as Sales, where it generates automated leads, and Legal teams, where it assists in drafting and analyzing complex documents. This is just the beginning.
With 30% of all dollars invested in startups going into AI, new startups are launching and reaching unicorn status at record speed—examples include dubbing software Eleven Labs, legal tech platform Harvey, and workplace data platform Glean, which took just a few years to reach unicorn status from launch—you can discover the rest in our AI unicorns landscape.
All of this has taken shape in just a few years and there are little signs of the ecosystem slowing down.
