You've really lost the plot

Meet Asia’s first accelerator for AI startups, founded by a Techstars London director

With the growing number of accelerator programs springing up in Hong Kong and all over the region, startups now have a slew of choices. While the likes of YC, 500 Startups and Techstars that continue to set the gold standard for seed stage accelerators globally, local programs also have much to offer. A few years ago, I had the privilege of going through 500 Startups. Soon after that, I acted as an entrepreneur-in-residence at Swire Properties’ Blueprint Accelerator and most recently, I went through Zeroth.AI, Asia’s first accelerator focused on Artificial Intelligence. The latter of which was with my second startup, Designjar, an end-to-end online advertising platform for Asia.

UK AI company Genus AI raises $1 million in seed funding
Genus AI, an artificial intelligence company based in London, has raised $1 million in seed funding led by Picus Capital with participation from several angel investors: Andy Chung of AngelList, Charlie Songhurst, and GoCardless founder Matt Robinson.

The Genus AI is a platform for businesses that uses machine learning to continuously engage with and learn from customers.

The new funds will be used to build up the company’s tech team in London and expand its US sales and marketing operations. The US is the company’s primary market, it said. Viktoras Jucikas, founder and CTO of YPlan, has been appointed executive chairman of Genus AI where he will join his brother Tadas Jucikas who is CEO.

Baker McKenzie has advised SAP, the German software giant which specializes in software and services for businesses, in the context of its acquisition of the start-up recast.AI


This transaction will allow SAP to complete its machine learning service offering and is part of the €2 billion investment plan to promote innovation in France which was launched by the software publisher in January 2018.

Recast.ai is a collaborative development platform for chatbots founded in 2015 by three young graduates from the school “42” (Jasmine Anteunis, Julien Blancher and Paul Renvoisé) and the French entrepreneur Patrick Joubert. Located at the Microsoft incubator “Station F”, the start-up designs all the development steps of an intelligent agent project, from modelling conversational flows to the deployment of the bot, via its integration in instant messaging (Messenger, Skype, Slack). Its chatbot programming activity for large corporates enabled it to triple its annual turnover in 2017 to around €3 million.

TurboPatent aims to improve the patent process with new artificial intelligence products
TurboPatent, which raised $1.4 million in funding earlier this year, focuses on corporations and law firms, automating tasks like formatting or document preparation, for example, freeing up people to work on more complex, high-value work. The service is designed to cut costs, save time and lead to more accurate patent documentation.

The new products are called RoboReview and RapidResponse. RoboReview uses AI and predictive analytics to automatically analyze and review draft patent applications. The company says this will reduce to seconds a process that can normally take several people multiple days to complete. RapidResponse helps speed up office actions, written correspondence between an applicant and patent examiner during the application process.

A Decentralized Data Marketplace
It’s hard to imagine what the future will look like but we can look at the processes we have adopted over the last 10 years to get a picture of what it might hold. Artificial Intelligence and machine learning have become essential tools to make our day to day lives run a little smoother.

The data we give to companies for free without even realising, helps to create a clear picture for machines to calculate a required output. From a simple purchase on Amazon, our data is collected into specific data sets and held as a preference for the next time you visit their page. Or for the next customer that purchases the item, the data collected from previous customers helps Amazon to recommend items which are usually bought along with it.

We are moving into an age in which Artificial Intelligence and machine learning processes help to make our decisions for us. It’s fascinating to think how far AI and Machine learning can take our civilisation but there are two key flaws in the system today. If every piece of data created by Man or Machine was correlated into one place, for all intelligence to use, our processes would become even more efficient and allow our progress as a society to evolve faster. Also the data that is used to ultimately create profit, isn’t producing revenue for the creators of it.
