This is the kind of news that makes me want to jump up and do a happy dance. These scientists may have produced an entirely new phase of matter. I’m going to do my best to explain what that means and why I personally believe this is the most important scientific breakthrough in our lifetimes.

Love it or hate it, raising money is a key responsibility of yours and something you can’t afford to get wrong. My company, Jscrambler, recently closed a $15 million Series A round, which was led by cybersecurity investment firm Ace Capital Partners and with follow-on from Sonae and Portugal Ventures — definitely an outcome I’m grateful for, especially looking back at what a journey this has been. So today I…
