The document analyzes data from CB Insights on unicorn companies (privately held startups valued at over $1 billion) as of June 2021. It provides statistics on the number and valuation of unicorns by country, industry, and city. Some of the key findings include: the US leads in number of unicorns, while China and India have higher average valuations; the UK has the most unicorns in Europe, led by London; and fintech is the top industry for unicorns in Germany and the UK.

Startups & Venture Capital in the United Kingdom: The Global Startup HubFrontline Ventures
A lot is riding on the UK remaining the premier destination for European startups. In light of Brexit, and tremendous growth in other European markets- will London remain the city of choice for European entrepreneurs?
In our third edition of “Startups & Venture Capital in…” (following Germany in collaboration with Point Nine Capital and the Nordics in collaboration with Northzone), Frontline takes deep dive into its own backyard — the United Kingdom.
We believe it is the most comprehensive report ever created on startups and venture capital in the UK.
Shoreditch, East LondonWhat we have learned:
The UK is unique for its late stage capital compared to other major European technology hubs. London counts 8 funds with £1b+ in funds raised — versus 2 in Germany and 1 in the Nordics.
London has more than 2x the engineering talent of Paris or 4x that of Berlin. London even beats New York in terms of absolute number of developers.
The United Kingdom is unmatched in terms of £100m+ exits in quantity and diversity among sectors. There are £1b+ tech companies in eCommerce, fintech, gaming, travel, proptech, telecom, and enterprise software.
Will Europe tops UK post-Brexit?
With a high concentration of talent, capital and leadership, the UK will remain a significant tech hub for the next decade.
However, Brexit is likely to slow the pace of immigration; this is a significant issue in a country where 75% of new businesses are set up by immigrants.
With venture activity in Berlin, Paris, and other European hubs growing much faster than London, will the UK cede its position as Europe’s leading tech hub?

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.
