On a recent episode of the excellent podcast “No Priors,” co-hosted by AI investors Sarah Guo and Elad Gil, Gil made a point about exit timing, which is no doubt familiar to founders who have spent time with him, but seems particularly useful in this moment of a deal. For most companies, Gill says, there is about a 12-month period in which the business reaches peak value, and then “then it crashes” and the window closes. Companies that reap generational benefits are often those that have someone spying on them, rather than assuming that good times will get even better.…

Reuters — On Saturday, a man in his 80s issued what appears to be the first formal apology by a French person for his family’s role in transatlantic slavery, saying he hoped other countries, including the government, would follow suit. Pierre Guyon de Princes’ ancestors were ship owners who were based in Nantes, France’s largest transatlantic slave port, transported approximately 4,500 enslaved Africans, and owned plantations in the Caribbean. Guyon de Princes said other French families must also confront their historical ties to slavery and that the state should go beyond symbolic actions to address the past, including through reparations.…
