We are happy to announce that The Networked Firm: Capital Allocation in the Age of Blockchain and AI will be officially released this week, on November 20.
The launch will take place at Schelling Point Buenos Aires during Devconnect, a gathering of builders and thinkers focused on coordination, public goods, and ecosystem-level challenges, making it a fitting venue for the release.
Join us at 3:30 p.m. (local time) to meet two of the authors, Kevin Owocki and Daniel Ospina, learn more about the book, and pick up a signed copy.

In case you missed it, we officially rebranded from RnDAO to RnD Ventures last week.
This shift clarifies our role as a venture studio and product ecosystem, helping founders build the future of collaboration technology. While the name has changed, our core mission and transparent, collaborative governance structure remain the same.
A refreshed website and further brand updates will be shared soon.
You can currently find us at rndao.io.
It’s time for another round of community learning gems!
Every week, we highlight a few great resources shared in our Discord, including articles, books, podcasts, videos, and social media posts, with links to the original content.
This week's highlights:
A data-driven breakdown of why most venture studios fail to deliver fund-level returns, and the eight-part playbook that separates the few winners.
Why most teams write like robots and how to fix it: eight mindset shifts that make copy clearer, more human, and more persuasive.
A formula-based way to estimate the traction needed to justify a raise for your startup, with realistic path comparisons between VC and angel-style funding.
FairAI continued strengthening the structure and clarity of its website content. The team took a closer look at how clients evaluate their options and what prompts them to look for solutions like FairAI’s, and used those insights to refine both the wording and the flow of the site.
They are also preparing a few different versions of certain sections to compare how each one performs. The aim is to understand which direction resonates most naturally with clients and provides the clearest signal for where to take the messaging next.
This week, seven new members joined, including:
A developer and startup co-founder with experience in smart contracts, data engineering, and full-stack development
A Conversational AI and UX specialist
A UX designer
A product designer
A business development and automation professional
A co-founder of a multichain Telegram trading and neobank bot
A founder building a video platform with automated multilingual translation to expand global content accessibility
