The Drive at Five with Robin and Dan - Episode 3
Up this week: Spain's unsung hero Wallbox, Super, and a pre-pre-seed round, or is that pre-seed-seed? Robinhood slashes the Ziglu purchase price, the EIC says, "Show me the money," and Just Eat calls it a day in Brazil.
Aaaaaand we're back! Robin takes a stab at the lead in this week, while Dan says it's got a good beat and that he can dance to it, but let's rewind the tape.
Normally around this time of the year tech news stories are a bit thin, but the summer of 2022 isn't letting up on the pace. This week Robin and Dan wax poetic about what happened, or is happening, with Wallbox's acquisitions, how it's flown under the radar, relatively, for the past 7 years, and is now poised to make a major impact in the U.S. market, Super's keyword bingo and claim to "one of the largest ever pre-seed funding rounds in Europe", Robin's side hustle, Robinhood and the massive price drop in its acquisition of Ziglu, how and why and what's happening with the bureaucracy in Brussels' funding of startups, and one more thing - Just Eat says tchau to Brazil.
All this and more on the Tech.eu Drive at Five.
