Description
After nearly a decade, Instacart investors are finally getting their exit. Reddit co-founder and 776 founder Alexis Ohanian was one of Instacart’s early investors, and he explains the headwinds and tailwinds facing the business on the day of its long-awaited IPO. In the wake of cyber breaches at Clorox, MGM, and Caesars, cybersecurity CEO Kevin Mandia explains the network of cybercriminals targeting corporations and the cyber defense strategies that will thwart attackers. Mandia led FireEye and is now CEO of Mandiant, a cyber threat intelligence subsidiary of Google. Plus, Elon Musk might start charging users to post on X, and UAW strikers continue their push against US automakers.
