🍔 Only 20% Of People With Eating Disorders Get Help 🍔
80% of the 30 million Americans with eating disorders don't get treatment. Against common assumptions, eating disorders affect people equally across genders, races, ethnicities, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status.
It is insane that no one has thought about solving this issue right here.

This is an idea for your next startup, you European entrepreneurs.
🚀 Entrepreneurs as a Service vs. Consultants 🚀
Many of my friends decided to work as consultants in the top 3 consulting firm. They get to work a lot, travel a lot and get paid a lot for that. All their expenses including Uber, meals & travel are covered by the consulting firm/agency. Consultants generally hang out together with Financial people. (Both Partners get to travel Business Class to Haiti every Summer)
By default,
Entrepreneurs are consultants. They move around startups because startups grow fast, often fail and pivot far too many times. They adapt to many projects at the same time, Growth Hacked by new amazing nocode tools and innovation itself.
In 2020, a new category of entrepreneurs rose 📈 to the freelance industry.
By definition,
Entrepreneurship as a Service is a SaaS model for Entrepreneurs Trafficking.
Quite recently,
I've discovered Kador, a growth agency & the biggest ex-founder community in France 🇫🇷. They offer multiple different services that are similar than what Time2Scale does but offers low code services for your project through Kuddos or competing with Ignition Program in job placements.
Fast-Up Partners is another one I found when I typed Entrepreneurship as a Service on Google (Good SEO guys 💪)
If you interested in the subject, this is a good podcast I recommend.
💰 Fintech + 🗣 Social = 1

The intersection of social and finance—as well as shifting attitudes around what we share about money online—have given way to an ambitious new wave of financial products.
The online world has taken over our daily lives in every aspect possible – from clothes to banking services it all happens online. Every service is close to required to have social media channels to attract new customers and retain the already-gained ones.
While revealing one’s financial information was once considered taboo, now people are more apt than ever to openly discuss money online, particularly Gen Z and millennials. That’s evident on both ends of the spectrum, whether people are bemoaning their crushing levels of student debt on Twitter and Instagram or bragging about their latest stock trades on WallStreetBets. The repercussions extend far beyond social media, fueling a wave of new social-fintech products like Public, Common stock, and Doji, among others.
Snowball.XYZ is a great example of that great mix between Fintech & SocialTech.

🍽 Restaurants of the future = your Home 🏠
According to Deloitte, the next-generation customer is technologically savvy, connected, and expecting concierge-level service around every corner. For a restaurant, investing in digital enhancements that are tightly coordinated and work in concert, will help to create the restaurant of the future that appeals to all the senses of this hyper-connected mentality.
Creating a restaurant’s “digital DNA” = five stages of interaction—the “5Es” = Entice, enter, engage, exit, and extend.
Does Dark Kitchen cover all these Es?
Quick reminder: Entice, Enter, Engage, Exit, and Extend.
I think that Home is the future of restaurants: You can do many things at once, from cooking a meal with your family like a Top Chef, order from Uber Eats at midnight because you have a munchies, get yourself delivered in just 10min a Kinder Bueno with Gorillaz...
Since 2020, we've been obsessed by bringing food to your home. What if people were tired of this and wanted to live an experience outdoor? #Terasse ☕️☀️🇫🇷
For those living in 🇫🇷 like me, enjoy your 1664 on a terasse…
Meanwhile, enjoy your Pad Thai 🍜 (it's trendy apparently) you might order tonight, from the Dark Kitchen next-door and some Kinder Bueno from Gorillaz 🦍.
Anyway, The office of the future is outdoors.

🙌 Collaborative Spatial Design ✐
By definition,
Collaborate and create better architectural designs faster using Virtual Reality.
According to Adobe, the technology industry is constantly trying to simplify the process of interaction with digital products. In a not so distant future, we will have natural user interfaces – interfaces where the interaction will be direct and consistent with our ‘natural’ behavior. And virtual reality (VR) contributes a lot to this movement. Google, Facebook, Microsoft, & Apple invest billions in the development of VR technologies.
VR & AR are two technologies that many designers consider to be the future of interactions, but VR has a lot more potential. Industry experts believe that VR will introduce even more significant changes in our society than the advent of the mobile phone.
Designers need to be ready for that moment.
Here are top actors in the business:

🛍 Managed Marketplaces by Trend.VC 🛍
Marketplaces are one of the most powerful business models. They’re hard to build and hard to disrupt once liquidity is reached. Managed marketplaces do more than connect buyers and sellers. They foster transactions with services such as:
Curation • Toptal connects you to the top 3% of designers, developers, data scientists and more.
Ratings • Airbnb and Uber use two-way rating systems to churn bad supply and demand. This builds trust at scale.
Escrow • Remodelmate collects payments from buyers and releases payments to contractors based on project milestones.
Enrichment • ThredUP adds metadata to items such as size, brand, condition and more. Each detail brings transparency and value to transactions.
Authentication • GOAT and StockX authenticate items to prevent counterfeiting.
Inventory Risk • OpenDoor buys homes from sellers in days. Then resells them.
Insurance • Turo provides up to $750,000 of liability insurance for rentals.
Standardization • Thumbtack quizzes buyers to get project details. This saves time in providing estimates.
Reporting • Municibid helps municipalities follow reporting requirements around selling government property.

I tried to keep it short (even though it wasn’t).

Anyway,
Enjoy your week & see you in two weeks 🙌
