Investors: Last Chance to Secure Your Spot!
This Thursday, July 24, at 16:00 UTC, investors and builders in the Arbitrum Ecosystem converge for an exclusive pitch event.
Discover promising startups before they hit the spotlight
Access a curated pipeline of vetted founders
Receive a follow-up package with decks and contact details
Get warm introductions to teams after the event
Supported by ArbitrumDAO and organized by RnDAO. Check out our tweet thread for more details and tag others who should be there!

The traditional startup path is lonely, risky, and inefficient—and most founders are set up to fail before they even begin.
In our latest blog post, we explore why the current system is broken and how Venture Studios offer a better way: systematic idea validation, shared infrastructure, recycled talent, and more aligned incentives. With success rates far higher than accelerators or VC-backed solo ventures, this model isn’t just promising—it’s already proving itself.
We’ve tested these ideas at RnDAO and built our studio around them.

Too Many Telegram Messages? Here’s the Easiest Way to Catch Up
Your Telegram group has been buzzing for hours. You open it—and it’s 247 unread messages. Where do you even start?
With TogetherCrew’s new feature, Update Me, there’s no need to scroll. Just type /summary [time period], and get a crisp, AI-powered recap of everything that matters: top discussions, key decisions, and who said what.
Want to see it in action? Here’s how the TogetherCrew team uses the Update Me feature in the Telegram group it hosts for community builders 👇

Whether someone’s been offline for 6 hours or two days, Update Me brings them up to speed in seconds.

Expanding Reach with New Outreach Tactics
As Fair AI continues rolling out its new outreach campaign, the team has also begun implementing a cold email strategy to expand their reach and test messaging with new audiences.
In parallel, they are re-engaging previous contacts to evaluate whether their refined messaging resonates more strongly than before.
LinkedIn Live
WE.LIVED.IT will be joining Women in Blockchain Talks for a LinkedIn Live on AI Bias, happening July 30th at 13:30 UTC. Tune in to hear the team discuss:
How bias finds its way into AI systems — it's not accidental!
The impact of AI bias: who bears the brunt?
Exploring community-led strategies: a different path forward

Process Update
The team now has a group of journalists participating as agreed testers for the product. They’re entering a focused development sprint informed by customer feedback. More details on the direction will be shared soon.
Refining Outreach and Strategy for Skills-First Hiring
This week, the Contribo team refined their outreach strategy with personalized messages tailored for Web3 roles, implemented automated job scraping using n8n and Firecrawl, and clarified their value proposition around skills-first hiring. They also improved the landing page, cold DMs, and cofounder pitch materials to better communicate their mission and attract early partners—while organizing calls with YC community members who resonated with their vision.
Whether you're exploring Web3 opportunities, hiring exceptional talent, or interested in reshaping how talent and opportunity connect—beyond traditional resumes and job posts—get in touch with the Contribo team via Telegram (@JuanRah or @AlexusNavas) or join them on Discord.
