"Reviving the British Empire: Imagining a Contemporary Reunion"
The British Empire stands as the largest empire in human history, reaching its territorial peak in 1921 following its triumph in World War I. At its zenith, the empire stretched across 35,500,000 square kilometers (14,000,000 square miles) and boasted a population of 413 million individuals, constituting approximately 23% of the global population at that time. To grasp its vastness, consider that it would have covered 94% of the entire lunar surface. So, when you gaze at the half of the moon visible from Earth each night, it serves as a poignant reminder that the British Empire once commanded a domain nearly twice that size. It was famously said that the sun never set on the British Empire, signifying that somewhere within its expansive reach, daylight was always present. However, even the mightiest empires must eventually yield to the passage of time.

What the FoaK is Deep Tech VC
During my first week at work, I was asked to review the deck for a certain energy storage startup, the founder of which was expected to visit us later during the day. Very diligently, I started taking notes and preparing questions for this Ivy League PhD founder with over a decade of experience in the industry. It might be useful to add here that I was 23 and had a cumulative 15 months of odd internships for work experience at that point. Anyway, four slides into the deck I realize that this company is essentially trying to defy all practical thermodynamic principles to achieve ideal states that were only talked about in my engineering textbooks - a technology so cutting edge that even Google Scholar would only have a handful of papers on it. Naturally, I sat like a starstruck fanboy throughout the meeting letting my colleagues do the talking while I learned how Deep Tech Venture Capital actually works (just kidding, I still haven’t figured it out lol).
