A lot has happened. Rohlik continues its European journey, we've secured several new investments (mostly in crypto), and published articles and podcasts. Let's get right to it.
We planned the dinner for the Czech Republic vs. Canada match. Fortunately, the Karlín venue HolKa had prepared a garden with a screen. Although the game didn't go well for the Czech Republic, it’s irrelevant history given the overall outcome :) How did the evening turn out? Check out the photos.
What will 2024 look like in crypto? The team at our web3 fund Miton C is optimistic, and it’s growing too. We're bolstering our ranks with Filip Široký, who joins us as a Research Partner.
It is one of those highly successful technology companies well-known among insiders but not seen that often in the media. In 10 years, Glami has become the largest search engine and online catalogue of fashion goods and accessories. It operates in 13 countries, and its customers place almost half a million orders a month. Thanks to Glami, online fashion stores will add CZK 4 billion to their sales this year. Of course, Glami, now led by CEO Ján Kešelák, didn't become a prominent and profitable international company by chance.
(Press Release) Czech technology company Livesport is expanding its philanthropic activities.

Donio has already raised more than 800 million CZK for charity and Livesport wants to help continue its growth in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

You may have noticed the first interviews with patients who participated in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy in different Czech media such as DVTV or aktuálně.cz. When we announced our investment in Psyon three years ago, this is exactly what we hoped for. We wanted to play our part in starting a psychedelic clinic that would provide help for people unable to find help elsewhere. How did it get all the way up to this point?
It’s been a year since we recorded our podcast episode about re-commerce. It’s high time we took another look at what’s been going on (the blog version of this Twitter thread follows).
We've done a deep dive into this fascinating and evolving space. Is it Conversational AI, TikTok, Instagram .. or something else? And what about the big G in the room? Time for a new Twitter thread.
What is better? A white wall or a poster from IKEA? There is an alternative, however, that even collectors will find appealing: limited edition fine art prints. Why are we writing about this? Because we have invested in a project devoted to making original artwork accessible to almost everyone.
We did a deep dive into where we are, robots and all. (Hint: we did not paint the cover image alone.)
