W is a letter W.

There is a weekly startup-and-markets newsletter. It is named after the daily column where it is called. Would you like to receive it in your inbox on Saturdays? If you sign up, you'll get notifications.

As we get closer to the end of the year, I thought it would be a good time to catch up with a few people who were keeping a close eye on the deal flow in the years to come.

The newsletter will not be published until January 7, 2023. Since taking over from Alex, I would like to thank you for reading me. I will be writing more in the new year.

An update on deal-flow newsletters

The goal of deal-flow newsletters is to help investors discover interesting startup without leaving their inbox. We were curious about how the projects we learned about earlier in the year were doing in light of how the global market for startup investment has changed. We chatted with the founder of the newsletter.

He shared the latest news.

  • From the start of May to the start of December, PreSeed Now has profiled more than 50 early-stage B2B and deep tech startups from around the U.K.
  • It’s driving deal flow. Many startups report getting interest from tech investors as a result of the coverage. Startups have also recruited staff and gained additional media interest as a result of being featured.
  • In terms of actual investments generated, that is a bit harder to measure at this stage, but I’m going to conduct some research into this as we approach the newsletter’s first birthday in May 2023.
