happy birthday @creem_io! 🍦
and welcome to the party @dawid_sugier, @sussisisse, @timmutoke, @villigm, @frydwia
Building a product went from months to a weekend. Getting paid for it did not.
Building is fast, marketing and growth are hard.
Today we fix that.
We are excited to announce CREEM 2.0 and that we have raised 7M EUR in total funding
@ProductHunt launch and details below 👇

some investment news: we @AntlerGlobal are excited to partner with Galdera Labs, alongside @J12Ventures and angels from Klarna, Stripe, DeepL, and Banco Plata (1/6)
our timelines are filled with AI compressing the middlegame in tech, but some domains don’t let you skip it. in endurance sport, you can’t skip the kilometres - that's where you earn the finish

when a product feels like magic, you pay attention
calendar scheduling is a pain everyone knows. when i discovered @blockitAI in stealth last year, i bombarded the support email trying to get access
it was instantly clear this was the best product on the market. grateful i also got to hang with the team in sf last october, and excited for the world to experience Blockit
go @kaiskhimji, @yhan819, and the rest of the Blockitons!
*not an investor, just a fan
BIG NEWS: Today we are launching @blockitAI -- the first AI scheduling agent that actually understands your time.
After spending my career as a partner at @sequoia, I stepped back to build this. Why?
Because I believe the calendar is the last untouched social network, and it can only now be unlocked through AI.
Our scheduling agent can handle any degree of complexity and has spread purely through virality to date.
Blockit now works for 200+ companies and has coordinated 100,000+ meetings — all with zero humans in the loop.
We're excited to emerge from stealth and announce our $5M raise from @sequoia led by Pat Grady (@gradypb) with participation from @haystackvc, @adjacent, Original, and NPV, i.e. Jeff Weiner, the former CEO of Linkedin.
Come for the agent, stay for the network — get started free today at blockit.com
communication tip: react to slack messages so people know (1) you’re responsive and (2) you saw it, to close the loop
note: reactions don't always send a notification. when speed matters, or you need the other person to act, reply with a message instead of a 👍 reaction
in smaller countries with a positive‑sum mindset, winning quickly amplifies momentum
thanks for having me @Viraj__Acharya <3
Winning creates winning.
When companies around you succeed, it becomes easier to believe you can take on the world too.
@markuslukk, @AntlerGlobal explains: "When companies around you are winning, it's difficult to not be confident to believe that you can take on the world as well. And that just has second-order effects on the rest of the ecosystem."
The ecosystem effect breaks down into three critical layers:
1. The Societal Layer
Cult-like support system
When you're from a small country like Estonia or Sweden, success creates a cult-like support system. Everyone cheers for the hometown hero. Everyone wants to see you win. This isn't just nice - it's strategic. It creates a support infrastructure that Silicon Valley has had for decades.
2. The Inspiration Layer
Success breeds success.
When founders see other founders winning, the impossible suddenly seems possible. Europe now has multiple companies "ripping" simultaneously - creating a multiplier effect we've never seen before.
3. The Opportunity Cost Layer
When all your friends are joining rocket ships, staying in school feels like falling behind.
The social infrastructure shifts.
Taking six months to build something doesn't seem risky when you can always go back to school if it fails.
Nomio continues to up the pace
in the last year, they have brought a product to market that is reshaping how athletes approach performance and recovery
from initially a bold idea about the power of broccoli sprouts, to a science-backed product now trusted by world-class athletes and teams across endurance sports, football, ice hockey, the NFL, tennis, golf, F1, and beyond
