UP.Labs-Porsche’s newest startup wants to be the Plaid of automotive retail
As serial entrepreneur Joel Milne founded, scaled, and then successfully sold mobile auto repair service startup RepairSmith to AutoNation, he was plagued by a persistent problem. The automotive retail industry has a communication problem. And it’s an expensive one. Thousands of dealerships and mechanic shops — each one with an array of software systems — […]As serial entrepreneur Joel Milne founded, scaled, and then successfully sold mobile auto repair service startup RepairSmith to AutoNation, he was plagued by a persistent problem.

At less than one and a half inches tall, roughly the same height as a LEGO minifigure, the world’s smallest self-contained bipedal robot can self-start from standstill, walk faster than a half mile per hour, turn, skip, and ascend small steps with just the power of its on-board battery, actuator, and control system.At less than one and a half inches tall, roughly the same height as a LEGO minifigure, the world’s smallest self-contained bipedal robot can self-start from standstill, walk faster than a half mile per hour, turn, skip, and ascend small steps with just the power of its on-board battery, actuator, and control system.[#item_full_content]
As Europe’s energy system faces new challenges and accelerates green and digital transitions, generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is emerging as a transformative enabler for critical infrastructure—and is already unlocking “quick wins” across Europe’s energy landscape, optimizing operational efficiency, workforce resilience, planning of large-scale infrastructures, and system flexibility.As Europe’s energy system faces new challenges and accelerates green and digital transitions, generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is emerging as a transformative enabler for critical infrastructure—and is already unlocking “quick wins” across Europe’s energy landscape, optimizing operational efficiency, workforce resilience, planning of large-scale infrastructures, and system flexibility.Energy & Green Tech[#item_full_content]
When disasters happen—such as hurricanes, wildfires and earthquakes—every second counts. Emergency teams need to find people fast, send help and stay organized. In today’s world, one of the fastest ways to get information is through social media.When disasters happen—such as hurricanes, wildfires and earthquakes—every second counts.

Predicting whether or not companies will be successful is crucial for guiding investment decisions and designing effective economic policies. However, past research on high-growth firms—enterprises thought to be key for driving economic development—has typically shown low predictive accuracy, suggesting that growth may be largely random. Does this assumption still hold in the AI era, in which vast amounts of data and advanced analytical methods are now available? Can AI techniques overcome difficulties in predicting high-growth firms? These questions were raised in a chapter I co-authored in the De Gruyter Handbook of SME Entrepreneurship, which reviewed scientific contributions on firm growth prediction with AI methods.Predicting whether or not companies will be successful is crucial for guiding investment decisions and designing effective economic policies.

At TechCrunch All Stage 2025, Rob Biederman will help founders rethink how to scale
If you’re a founder looking to grow your startup, chances are you’re wrestling with more than just product or capital. Talent, scale, and smart execution are the real battlegrounds. That’s exactly what TechCrunch All Stage 2025 is built to address on July 15 at Boston’s SoWa Power Station. See top startup leaders taking the stage […]If you’re a founder looking to grow your startup, chances are you’re wrestling with more than just product or capital.

A robotic hand developed at EPFL can pick up 24 different objects with human-like movements that emerge spontaneously, thanks to compliant materials and structures rather than programming.A robotic hand developed at EPFL can pick up 24 different objects with human-like movements that emerge spontaneously, thanks to compliant materials and structures rather than programming.[#item_full_content]
The United States population is older than it has ever been. Today, the country’s median age is 38.9, which is nearly a decade older than it was in 1980. And the number of adults older than 65 is expected to balloon from 58 million to 82 million by 2050. The challenge of caring for the elderly, amid shortages of care workers, rising health care costs, and evolving family structures, is an increasingly urgent societal issue.The United States population is older than it has ever been.
