//The Wire//2200Z June 12, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: COMMERCIAL AIRLINER CRASHES IN INDIA, 260 FATALITIES CONFIRMED SO FAR. TENSIONS CONTINUE IN MIDDLE EAST. RIOTS CONTINUE IN NORTHERN IRELAND AND USA.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-India: This morning Air India Flight 171 crashed shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad. The aircraft impacted the student housing at B.J. Medical College, a teaching hospital and large medical facility. Local authorities have claimed that there was only one survivor among the 242 souls on board. There is no confirmation on casualties sustained on the ground, however locals have provided the figure of 260 casualties all total (both those in the aircraft and on the ground). Aircraft debris is spread over a wide area throughout a densely-populated region, so the casualty count is expected to rise as recovery efforts continue.Northern Ireland: Protests and riots alike continued throughout the region overnight, with locals continuing arson attacks on migrant centers. Yesterday afternoon, locals discovered that the family members of the migrants who assaulted a child (the incident that started all of this) were temporarily evacuated to a Leisure Center in Larne, which was promptly burned down by locals. Riots continued in Ballymena, and vandalism efforts have disrupted local train services as obstacles and fires were set on train tracks in a few locations around the area.Middle East: Indications and warnings continue to mount regarding a potential war with Iran. The US State Department continues to issue region-wide warnings, though no specifics have been provided regarding the potential threats.AC: Considering all possibilities, the recent threat warnings issued by the White House could also be a ruse, specifically an ambiguity-decreasing information operation. In other words, it could be a trick to pressure the Iranians into making a deal with regards to their nuclear aspirations. Either way, it is a dangerous game, and increased vigilance is recommended in any case due to the uncertainty of how events might transpire over the next few days.-HomeFront-Texas: Governor Greg Abbott has ordered the deployment of approximately 5,000 National Guard soldiers in preparation for the mass demonstration events planned for this weekend. These forces will augment the thousands of local and state police which have been tasked with keeping order during the thousands of protests that will take place around the nation on Saturday.California: This afternoon U.S. Senator Alex Padilla was arrested after attempting to disrupt a press conference at which DHS Secretary Kristi Noem was speaking. Senator Padilla resisted being removed from the room after causing the disruption, and was subsequently arrested by force in the hallway outside the event. The Senator was released shortly after the incident, and as of yet has not been charged.USA: This afternoon a large scale communications outage was reported throughout the nation. Cloudflare, AWS, and Google Cloud all reported simultaneous issues with their platforms and services.AC: No cause of the outages has been reported, however this is a major incident considering the timing of multiple independent systems going offline at the same time.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: When it comes to the chaos and kinetic activities in Northern Ireland, there are two main lines of effort by involved parties: There are the ethnically Irish protesters-turned-rioters, who have engaged in arson attacks in migrant communities in response to immigration issues. Separate from these incidents, looting has been observed taking place, which is largely being carried out by migrant communities themselves. This is complicating efforts to host legitimately peaceful demonstrations, as the situation in some areas is simply too chaotic to determ

This week on Revenue Rehab, Brandi Starr is joined by Michael Buckbee, founder of Knowatoa and AI-driven search marketing expert, who believes most marketers are missing out on revenue by ignoring how their brands appear in AI search tools—and he's ready to prove it. In this episode, Buckbee challenges the industry's Google-first mindset and argues that AI platforms like ChatGPT and Gemini are now the key gateways to buyers, demanding a radical rethink of content and SEO strategy. From shifting content budgets to exposing overlooked technical pitfalls, Buckbee makes the case that revenue leaders must adapt now to avoid losing visibility and pipeline in an AI-dominated landscape. Is your strategy keeping up, or is it time for a rehab?  Episode Type: Problem Solving - Industry analysts, consultants, and founders take a bold stance on critical revenue challenges, offering insights you won't hear anywhere else. These episodes explore common industry challenges and potential solutions through expert insights and varied perspectives.  Bullet Points of Key Topics + Chapter Markers:  Topic #1: Google's Grip on B2B Search Is Slipping [02:41]  Michael Buckbee argues that relying solely on Google for B2B brand discovery is now a critical mistake. He highlights how AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity are rapidly changing buyer behavior and asserts that “most marketers have no idea how they're showing up in AI and it's costing them real revenue.” Brandi Starr questions whether AI is truly overtaking Google, leading Michael to explain that even Google is transforming its search experience in response to these new AI platforms.  Topic #2: Outdated SEO Strategies Are Killing Organic Growth [06:23]  Michael challenges the conventional top-of-funnel, high-traffic blog strategy that marketers have depended on for years. He points out that informational queries are increasingly answered directly by AI summaries, saying “those are going away as a traffic source,” and urges leaders to shift focus toward bottom-of-funnel content that addresses specific buyer objections and differentiators. Brandi Starr pushes for actionable advice, sparking a discussion on how marketing budgets and content plans need to be realigned for this new search landscape.  Topic #3: Winning Requires Siteless SEO and AI Indexing [15:56]  Michael pushes revenue leaders to rethink basic SEO, warning that many websites are inadvertently blocking AI crawlers and missing out on AI-driven buyer research. He explains the need to ensure that AI bots can index your content and introduces the concept of “siteless SEO,” recommending that brands publish content directly on platforms like LinkedIn and Reddit for broader visibility. The segment includes specific tactics as Michael calls this a foundational shift that “marketers need to act on now.”   The Wrong Approach vs. Smarter Alternative  The Wrong Approach: "A common trap is to stick with the existing content plans. You know, you had mentioned AI overviews and how it lists sources. You know, you can still fight for those terms, those like high level informational terms. But I do think you really need to consider, is this something where people are going to read this and then there's a list of 30 sites on the side? Is that a benefit to you that you're one of those 30 links that's buried in there? Are people actually going to find you? Is it actually going to move things forward or are your efforts better spent elsewhere?" – Michael Buckbee  Why It Fails: Traditional top-of-funnel content strategies focus on broad informational keywords, but AI search tools now summarize these queries and bury brands in a long list of sources. This leads to reduced visibility and engagement, as buyers are more likely to rely on AI summaries instead of clicking through to individual sites.  The Smarter Alternative: Companies should pivot their content strategy toward mid- and bottom-funnel topics that address buyer objections and showcase clear differentiation. Distributing this content across multiple platforms, not just your website, increases the likelihood that AI systems will pick up and accurately represent your brand, making it easier for buyers to discover and trust you during their research process.  The Most Damaging Myth  The Myth: “We kind of don't need to care about these new AI startups and all we need to do is care about Google and they just go back to doing things how they have been doing them.” – Michael Buckbee  Why It's Wrong: Many marketers believe that focusing on traditional Google SEO is enough, but Google itself is evolving in response to AI-driven platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. Ignoring these changes means companies risk losing visibility where buyers are actually researching and making decisions, leading to missed revenue opportunities.  What Companies Should Do Instead: Companies should adapt by monitoring their brand visibility across AI search platforms, shifting content strategies away from solely top-of-funnel topics, and making sure their content is accessible to both Google and AI bots. This proactive approach ensures brands continue to show up where buyers are searching now and in the future.  The Rapid-Fire Round  What is the first sign that a company is facing the problem of being ready for AI search but hasn't yet named it?“In their Google search console, they're probably seeing a very steady amount of impressions coming through and a drop off in click throughs to their site. That's a pattern that's seen in lots of different places. And that's the first like real data point that a lot of SEOs have found like, something's going on here. We need to be prepared for.” - Michael Buckbee What's one mindset shift that unlocks progress?“I think the biggest mindset shift should be the duplicate content penalty, which was something that SEOs have considered for a long time, which is like, put a blog post up on my site. I don't want another site to scrape it and put it up on their site because that pulls the Google juice from both of us. It dilutes it. But in the world of AI search, that's a huge benefit. Now you're twice as powerful because the messaging has been said twice.” What's one common trap leaders fall into when trying to solve this?“I think a common trap is to stick with the existing content plans. You know, you had mentioned AI overviews and how it lists sources. You know, you can still fight for those terms, those like high level informational terms, but I do think you really need to consider, is this something where people are going to read this and then there's a list of 30 sites on the side? Is that a benefit to you? That you're one of those 30 links that's buried in there? Are people actually gonna find you? Is it actually gonna move things forward? Or are your efforts better spent elsewhere?” What's the most underrated move that actually works to fix this fast?“I think the most underrated move is to just make sure that checkbox isn't hit in Cloudflare because I see that a lot. Many, many sites are inadvertently blocking these for lots of weird reasons. And you know, it's such an easy fix. Why wouldn't you do that?”  Links:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelbuckbee/  X: https://x.com/mbuckbee  Website: https://knowatoa.com   Subscribe, listen, and rate/review Revenue Rehab Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts , Amazon Music, or iHeart Radio and find more episodes on our website RevenueRehab.live

What if the world's most trusted cryptographic systems could be broken in just minutes instead of centuries? In this thought-provoking episode of the Brilliance Security Magazine Podcast, David Close, Chief Solutions Architect at Futurex, joins host Steven Bowcut to discuss the very real—and rapidly accelerating—threat that quantum computing poses to modern encryption. With quantum advancements progressing faster than many expected, Close explains why organizations need to act now to safeguard long-term data, and how hybrid and agile cryptographic systems are the key to staying ahead.SummaryDavid Close opens the conversation by tracing his own journey from embedded firmware engineering to his current role leading cryptographic innovation at Futurex. He shares how his work with Hardware Security Modules (HSMs)—specialized devices that securely manage encryption keys—laid the groundwork for Futurex's leadership in enterprise-grade encryption.The core of the episode centers on the quantum computing threat to current encryption standards like RSA and elliptic curve cryptography. David breaks down the technical implications in accessible terms: quantum computers can solve problems exponentially faster than classical computers, meaning encryption methods that would take millennia to break with today's machines might be cracked in minutes by quantum processors.A key highlight is the concept of “Harvest Now, Decrypt Later”—a tactic where attackers steal encrypted data today, intending to decrypt it once quantum technology matures. David emphasizes that this threat is not futuristic; it's already underway, with critical long-life data like medical records, financial information, and government secrets at risk.David outlines how Futurex and other leading organizations are proactively adapting. For example, Google and Cloudflare have already implemented hybrid cryptography using both classical and quantum-safe algorithms. Futurex is doing the same across its suite of HSMs and key management solutions, supporting new standards ratified by NIST (including Kyber and Dilithium) and enabling “crypto agility”—the ability to quickly adopt new encryption standards without overhauling infrastructure.He also shares how Futurex is helping clients through cryptographic discovery, which allows organizations to identify where and how cryptography is being used across their environments. This step is essential for prioritizing risk areas and laying a foundation for a secure, phased migration to post-quantum cryptography.Finally, David stresses that while the quantum threat is real and imminent, organizations shouldn't panic—but they must act now. The transition to post-quantum cryptography is already underway, and those who prepare today will be far more secure and resilient tomorrow.

There's a module for that Module name/project name: Facet Bot Blocker Brief history How old: created in Mar 2025, so about two months ago, by John Brandenburg (bburg) of Forum One Versions available: 1.0.2 which support Drupal 10 and 11 Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage Number of open issues: 4 open issues, one of which is a bug, but it did have a fix merged 4 days ago Usage stats: 106 sites Module features and usage A number of sites are seeing a huge upswing in bot traffic, and quite often a big part of that bot traffic is on one or more pages with faceted search Crawlers try to request every permutation of every possible combination of facets. If your page has multiple facets, and in particular facets that accept multiple values, the number of permutations becomes huge Facet Bot Blocker works by allowing you to set a maximum number of facet requests to allow, what error to return, and a custom HTML message to return to blocked user agents If you have Memcache or Redis available, it's recommended to use the appropriate module, and Facet Bot Blocker will automatically store its settings there for reduced database reads The project page is also clear that if you are able to use a true Web Application Firewall (like Cloudflare or Akamai), that would be a better strategy. But if you don't have one available, Facet Bot Blocker can help to mitigate the surges in bot traffic that are causing problems for many Drupal sites, particularly those hosted on platforms that charge based on usage

In today's episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with Christian Reilly, Field CTO for EMEA at Cloudflare, the Connectivity Cloud company, to examine the latest findings from their cybersecurity research and what they reveal about how prepared different industries really are. While sectors like IT, gaming, and financial services have seen a higher volume of cyberattacks, they also report greater readiness and resilience. In contrast, industries like education and healthcare, although less frequently targeted, remain far less prepared to defend against growing threats. This gap raises important questions about how organizations approach security depending on their legacy systems, revenue models, and digital maturity. Christian brings years of frontline experience to the discussion and shares actionable insights into how companies can build cybersecurity strategies that not only protect but also improve performance. From the shift toward zero trust architecture to the critical role of board-level engagement, we explore how forward-thinking organizations are rethinking the role of cybersecurity in modern digital operations. He explains why simplicity often beats complexity, and how reducing friction for end users is key to long-term resilience. We also look ahead to some of the key trends shaping the future of security. Christian dives into the challenges posed by emerging technologies such as quantum computing, AI, and the explosion of data generated by IoT and smart infrastructure. He stresses the importance of preparing now for scenarios like Harvest Now, Decrypt Later, and why organizations need to begin thinking seriously about post-quantum cryptography. On the human side, Christian outlines what effective training looks like today and how to shift employee culture from compliance to awareness. If you're wondering how to stay one step ahead of evolving threats, this conversation offers a wealth of insight from the heart of the Connectivity Cloud. How is your organization preparing for what's coming next?

Ashley Peacock, the author of Serverless Apps on Cloudflare, speaks with host Jeremy Jung about content delivery networks (CDNs). Along the way, they examine dependency injection with bindings, local development, serverless, cold starts, the V8 runtime, AWS Lambda vs Cloudflare workers, WebAssembly limitations, and core services such as R2, D1, KV, and Pages. Ashley suggests why most users use an external database and discusses eventually consistent data stores, S3-to-R2 migration strategies, queues and workflows, inter-service communication, durable objects, and describes some example projects.

This week we talk about the Marshall Plan, standardization, and USB.We also discuss artificial intelligence, Anthropic, and protocols.Recommended Book: Fuzz by Mary RoachTranscriptIn the wake of WWII, the US government implemented the European Recovery Program, more commonly known as the Marshall Plan, to help Western Europe recover from a conflict that had devastated the afflicted countries' populations, infrastructure, and economies.It kicked off in April of 1948, and though it was replaced by a successor program, the Mutual Security Act, just three years later in 1951—which was similar to the Marshall Plan, but which had a more militant, anti-communism bent, the idea being to keep the Soviets from expanding their influence across the continent and around the world—the general goal of both programs was similar: the US was in pretty good shape, post-war, and in fact by waiting to enter as long as it did, and by becoming the arsenal of the Allied side in the conflict, its economy was flourishing, its manufacturing base was all revved up and needed something to do with all the extra output capacity it had available, all the resources committed to producing hardware and food and so on, so by sharing these resources with allies, by basically just giving a bunch of money and assets and infrastructural necessities to these European governments, the US could get everybody on side, bulwarked against the Soviet Union's counterinfluence, at a moment in which these governments were otherwise prone to that influence; because they were suffering and weaker than usual, and thus, if the Soviets came in with the right offer, or with enough guns, they could conceivably grab a lot of support and even territory. So it was considered to be in everyone's best interest, those who wanted to keep the Soviet Union from expanding, at least, to get Europe back on its feet, posthaste.So this program, and its successor program, were highly influential during this period, and it's generally considered to be one of the better things the US government has done for the world, as while there were clear anti-Soviet incentives at play, it was also a relatively hands-off, large-scale give-away that favorably compared with the Soviets' more demanding and less generous version of the same.One interesting side effect of the Marshall Plan is that because US manufacturers were sending so much stuff to these foreign ports, their machines and screws and lumber used to rebuild entire cities across Europe, the types of machines and screws and lumber, which were the standard models of each in the US, but many of which were foreign to Europe at the time, became the de facto standard in some of these European cities, as well.Such standards aren't always the best of all possible options, sometimes they stick around long past their period of ideal utility, and they don't always stick, but the standards and protocols within an industry or technology do tend to shape that industry or technology's trajectory for decades into the future, as has been the case with many Marshall Plan-era US standards that rapidly spread around the world as a result of these giveaways.And standards and protocols are what I'd like to talk about today. In particular a new protocol that seems primed to shape the path today's AI tools are taking.—Today's artificial intelligence, or AI, which is an ill-defined type of software that generally refers to applications capable of doing vaguely human-like things, like producing text and images, but also somewhat superhuman things, like working with large data-sets and bringing meaning to them, are developing rapidly, becoming more potent and capable seemingly every day.This period of AI development has been in the works for decades, and the technologies required to make the current batch of generative AI tools—the type that makes stuff based on libraries of training data, deriving patterns from that data and then coming up with new stuff based on the prompting of human users—were originally developed in the 1970s, but the transformer, which was a fresh approach to what's called deep learning architectures, was first proposed in 2017 by a researcher at Google, and that led to the development of the generative pre-trained transformer, or GPT, in 2018.The average non-tech-world person probably started to hear about this generation of AI tools a few years later, maybe when the first transformer-based voice and image tools started popping up around the internet, mostly as novelties, or even more likely in late-2022 when OpenAI released the first version of ChatGPT, a generative AI system attached to a chatbot interface, which made these sorts of tools more accessible to the average person.Since then, there's been a wave of investment and interest in AI tools, and we've reached a point where the seemingly obvious next-step is removing humans from the loop in more AI-related processes.What that means in practice is that while today these tools require human prompting for most of what they do—you have to ask an AI for a specific image, then ask it to refine that image in order to customize it for your intended use-case, for instance—it's possible to have AI do more things on their own, working from broader instructions to refine their creations themselves over multiple steps and longer periods of time.So rather than chatting with an AI to come up with a marketing plan for your business, prompting it dozens or hundreds of times to refine the sales copy, the logo, the images for the website, the code for the website, and so on, you might tell an AI tool that you're building a business that does X and ask it to spin up all the assets that you need. From there, the AI might research what a new business in that industry requires, make all the assets you need for it, go back and tweak all those assets based on feedback from other AI tools, and then deploy those assets for you on web hosting services, social media accounts, and the like.It's possible that at some point these tools could become so capable in this regard that humans won't need to be involved at all, even for the initial ideation. You could ask an AI what sorts of businesses make sense at the moment, and tell it to build you a dozen minimum viable products for those businesses, and then ask it to run those businesses for you—completely hands off, except for the expressing your wishes part, almost like you're working with a digital genie.At the moment, components of that potential future are possible, but one of the main things standing in the way is that AI systems largely aren't agentic enough, which in this context means they need a lot of hand-holding for things that a human being would be capable of doing, but which they largely, with rare exceptions, aren't yet, and they often don't have the permission or ability to interact with other tools required to do that kind of building—and that includes things like the ability to create a business account on Shopify, but also the ability to access and handle money, which would be required to set up business and bank accounts, to receive money from customers, and so on.This is changing at a rapid pace, and more companies are making their offerings accessible to specific AI tools; Shopify has deployed its own cluster of internal AI systems, for instance, meant to manage various aspects of a business its customers perch on its platform.What's missing right now, though, is a unifying scaffolding that allows these services and assets and systems to all play nice with each other.And that's the issue the Model Context Protocol is meant to address.The Model Context Protocol, or MCP, is a standard developed by AI company Anthropic, and it's open and designed to be universal. The company intends for it to be the mycelium that connects large language model-based AI to all sorts of data and tools and other systems, a bit like the Hypertext Transfer Protocol, or HTTP, allows data on the web to be used and shared and processed, universally, in a standardized way, and to dip back into the world of physical objects, how standardized shipping containers make global trade a lot more efficient because everyone's working with the same sized boxes, cargo vessels, and so on.The Universal Serial Bus standard, usually shorthanded as USB, is also a good comparison here, as the USB was introduced to replaced a bunch of other standards in the early days of personal computing, which varied by computer maker, and which made it difficult for those makers, plus those who developed accessories, to make their products accessible and inexpensive for end-users, as you might buy a mouse that doesn't work with your specific computer hardware, or you might have a cable that fits in the hole on your computer, but doesn't send the right amount of data, or provide the power you need.USB standards ensured that all devices had the same holes, and that a certain basic level of data and power transmission would be available. And while this standard has since fractured a bit, a period of many different types of USB leading to a lot of confusion, and the deployment of the USB C standard simplying things somewhat, but still being a bit confounding at times, as the same shaped plug may carry different amounts of data and power, despite all that, it has still made things a lot easier for both consumers and producers of electronic goods, as there are fewer plugs and charger types to purchase, and thus less waste, confusion, and so on. We've moved on from the wild west era of computer hardware connectivity into something less varied and thus, more predictable and interoperable.The MCP, if it's successful, could go on to be something like the USB standard in that it would serve as a universal connector between various AI systems and all the things you might want those AI systems to access and use.That might mean you want one of Anthropic's AI systems to build you a business, without you having to do much or anything at all, and it may be capable of doing so, asking you questions along the way if it requires more clarity or additional permissiosn—to open a bank account in your name, for instance—but otherwise acting more agentically, as intended, even to the point that it could run social media accounts, work with manufacturers of the goods you sell, and handle customer service inquiries on your behalf.What makes this standard a standout compared to other options, though—and there are many other proposed options, right now, as this space is still kind of a wild west—is that though it was developed by Anthropic, which originally made it to work with its Claude family of AI tools, it has since also been adopted by OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and several of the other largest players in the AI world.That means, although there are other options here, all with their own pros and cons, as was the case with USB compared to other connection options back in the day, MCP is usable with many of the biggest and most spendy and powerful entities in the AI world, right now, and that gives it a sort of credibility and gravity that the other standards don't currently enjoy.This standard is also rapidly being adopted by companies like Block, Apollo, PayPal, CloudFlare, Asana, Plaid, and Sentry, among many, many others—including other connectors, like Zapier, which basically allows stuff to connect to other stuff, further broadening the capacity of AI tools that adopt this standard.While this isn't a done deal, then, there's a good chance that MCP will be the first big connective, near-universal standard in this space, which in turn means many of the next-step moves and tools in this space will need to work with it, in order to gain adoption and flourish, and that means, like the standards spread around the world by the Marshall Plan, it will go on to shape the look and feel and capabilities, including the limitations, of future AI tools and scaffoldings.Show Noteshttps://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2025/04/mcp-the-new-usb-c-for-ai-thats-bringing-fierce-rivals-together/https://blog.cloudflare.com/remote-model-context-protocol-servers-mcp/https://oldvcr.blogspot.com/2025/05/what-went-wrong-with-wireless-usb.htmlhttps://arxiv.org/html/2504.16736v2https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_Context_Protocol#cite_note-anthropic_mcp-1https://github.com/modelcontextprotocolhttps://www.anthropic.com/news/integrationshttps://www.theverge.com/2024/11/25/24305774/anthropic-model-context-protocol-data-sourceshttps://beebom.com/model-context-protocol-mcp-explained/https://techcrunch.com/2025/03/26/openai-adopts-rival-anthropics-standard-for-connecting-ai-models-to-data/https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/09/google-says-itll-embrace-anthropics-standard-for-connecting-ai-models-to-data/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generative_artificial_intelligencehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USBhttps://www.archives.gov/milestone-documents/marshall-planhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_Planhttps://www.congress.gov/crs-product/R45079https://www.ebsco.com/research-starters/history/marshall-planhttps://www.history.com/articles/marshall-plan This is a public episode.

Canadians have been the lifeblood behind some of the biggest unicorn startups of the past few years (think Open AI, Uber, Slack, Instacart, Notion, Databricks, CloudFlare, Roblox, Ethereum, Moderna Health, and Clay to name a few), and yet no one talks about them, except for Andre Charoo. And he's not just talking – he's putting his money behind Canadian founders through his fund, Maple VC. Andre shares why he thinks Canadian founders are always a strong bet (and bonus points if they're immigrants, too), what it's like to wait over 7 years to see a pre-seed investment materialize (in this case, recent unicorn Clay), and how he thinks about moats in the AI age (and why they still matter).Maple VC writes $500k – $1.5 million industry-agnostic checks into pre-seed and seed stage companies with roots from Canada to Korea to Harvard. HighlightsEven long after he left Uber and Hired, Andre never lost his go-to-market spirit and he's carried it with him as he's moved from operator to VC. Andre's investing framework can best be described as Canadian roots with global reach. He's been working hard to give Canadian founders their due and show their world that they are some of the most ambitious people out there. Clay, a unicorn in the Maple VC portfolio, is a testament to persistence and patience. Andre urges investors to remember they're playing the long game – waiting for results that may not materialize for nearly a decade. It's all about building durable companies, and the 7 Powers by Hamilton Helmer still holds true. Andre stresses that defensibility and success come from strategic insight, execution, and taste—not just code.While AI is changing the way companies form and scale, Andre still believes in this undefeated combo for founders: inventors, builders, and operators.(00:00) - Andre Charoo, Maple VC - Before Clay Was a Unicorn: The First Check, the Thesis, and the Long Game (01:40) - Andre's journey from operator to investor (06:56) - Why Andre will always bet on Candian expats (22:46) - Andre's check size and how he manages Maple VC (33:38) - The 7-year story of the unicorn, Clay (42:14) - Where Andre thinks AI stands and where it might be going (49:17) - Moats still matter in the AI era (01:03:02) - Andre's take on the inventor-builder-operator trifecta
