A Neko Health investor on the $700M bet to scan your whole body (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Spotify founder Daniel Ek’s Neko Health raised $700 million to build a business around scanning your body, but it’s not the only company centering its roadmap around a new kind of preventative healthcare.

Why are investors betting so big on this category? On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, Dominic-Madori Davis talks with Farooq Abbasi,
What’s next for cybersecurity, according to Index Ventures’ Shardul Shah (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As concern over AI safety and rogue agents continue to make headlines, it’s no surprise that cybersecurity stocks are rising, or that investors are pouring massive amounts of capital into startups trying to build the next generation of security for an AI-native world.
