Holy cow, so based on OpenAI's UK filings, average salary in 2025 was £794k and £1.52m share based compensation on top of that. So the total was £2.35m = $3.1m per employee

Cool idea for a hackathon. The traditional concept of a 'venture' itself will probably soon be obsolete. Rather, we might have autonomous venture factories. shipyard.london/hackathon

London has more fintech unicorns than anywhere in Europe. 80% of UK unicorns were built here. And yet, finding your cofounder, a VC who actually gets you, and a community that has your back still feels impossible. That's why we're launching SHIPYARD
