It’s been over a minute since Tesla went public, but the electrical vehicle company has been on TechCrunch this week. From layoffs to cost changes and more, it was a week deep in Tesla colours, so we needed to talk concerning the latest.
But that was only one piece of what we covered this week at Equity. We also delved into Mary Ann’s reporting on Ramp’s latest round – and higher valuation – which is a perfect fit for Rippling’s upcoming fundraiser. If you are in the cash business, it’s a good time to start out a startup.
The team also delved into Cherub’s desire to attach investors and founders, Maven Ventures’ motivation for consumer investing, and touched on Mercury’s plans. All in all, we were lucky to have Kirsten Korosec with us this week, given the amount and number of transportation news we’ve got to cover, especially in relation to Tesla.
Equity returns tomorrow with a special interview between Mary Ann and Hans Tung of Notable Capital, the so-called wait for further information! Until then, press play and let’s have some fun.
Equity is TechCrunch’s flagship podcast, published every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. You can subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts, Cloudy, Spotify and all of the casts.
