Editor’s Note
Hey, dear reader!
Hamburg's event calendar might look a bit lighter this week (seems like everyone's chasing some vitamin D elsewhere), but I’ve still got plenty of goodies for you.
If you're looking for a good read to fill up your evening, these are worth your time:
🦄 Germany’s VC roars back: start-ups raise €2.4B in Q2 and push the unicorn herd to a record 32.
🔳 Ever wondered how QR codes actually work? This guide is for you.
📺 The NYT dives into who's really watching those marathon video podcasts.
🤖 This guide transforms ChatGPT into your personal AI copilot for actual work wins.
⌛️ AGI on ice? Dwarkesh Patel argues that without continual learning breakthroughs, AGI might still be decades away.
What’s Inside
While Hamburg's tech scene is taking a well-deserved vacation, why not mix it up with some cultural events?
Open-air cinema is Hamburg summer gold: sprawl in a deck-chair at Zeise Open Air in the Altona Rathaus courtyard or lounge on the Schanzenpark lawn for Schanzenkino.
If you’d rather move than sit, slide over to Roots x Afrohaus Beach Party at Edelfettwerk on Friday.
Finally, close the weekend proudly on Saturday by joining the 45th Hamburg Pride CSD Demo.
Alright, culture covered. Let's dive into this week's startup picks.
