Amee: Building the Network for Environmental and Financial Risk

At USV we look for businesses that have network effects and use the internet to do things that simply weren’t possible before. We are particularly thrilled when we can find opportunities that also have the potential of having a positive impact on society. This is why I am excited about what the team at amee in the UK has come up with over the last year: a networked approach to environmental and financial risk (amee is a USV portfolio company).

The Open Data Institute + Gavin Starks

One of the great promises of the Internet is that it provides for unprecedented access to data. Whether that is data on government or corporate activity or research results and intermediate measurements. By opening up that data so that entrepreneurs, developers, researchers can build on top of it (and hopefully contribute back to it) we can accelerate innovation in many fields. I am therefore excited to see Sir Tim Berners-Lee creating the Open Data Institute and thrilled that Gavin Starks, t...

ALF Yourself: Tracking Your CO2 Footprint Via AMEE + Foursquare

Last week I was in London to spend time with the team from AMEE. On the flight to London, I read an article that provided a potent reminder of the importance of measuring CO2 emissions. The Independent had a big story on Methane gas being released from the Arctic sea floor off the coast of Siberia in far larger quantities than previously feared. Methane is a very powerful greenhouse gas (20x more potent than CO2) that was trapped beneath permafrost. The release of this gas is a great example ...

Real-time Web Growth Will Be M2M: Smart Meters

Much of the discussion of the real-time web has focused on content generated by humans, such as tweets. But the bigger growth over the next decade is likely to come from m2m interactions. One big source of data will be smart meters. For instance, the UK government recently unveiled a plan to equip every home with a smart meter by 2020. The real-time electricity usage data from these meters can be used for better management of consumption by individuals, companies and utilities. In addition to...

A few weeks ago, my daughter came home quite distraught from school. “Daddy, the polar bears and penguins are dying and it is our fault” she declared at the dinner table. Having spent many hours admiring the polar bears and penguins at the Central Park Zoo, this was something that all three of our kids immediately agreed was to be stopped. So they wanted to know what could be done about it. We had one of the better dinner discussions in a long time and produced a list of things we would do pe...
