A: Hey there! Did you hear about the news?

B: No, what's up?

A: So, this startup called Prezent just got $30 million in funding to create an AI-powered presentation builder for big corporations. They've already bought another company and now they're worth $400 million!

B: Wow, that sounds impressive! What do they plan on doing with all that money?

A: Mostly acquisitions, I think. They bought a services-led presentation company in the life sciences vertical. The founder of Prezent was one of its co-founders too. Crazy, right?

B: Yeah, that's unusual! But there are other companies doing similar stuff, like Presentations.ai and Lica. What makes them special?

A: They want to focus on enterprise strategy, not consumers or small businesses. They're going to customize their AI tools for different industries and place presentation engineers in enterprises to help people get used to the new tools.

B: That sounds like a good plan! Do you think they'll succeed?

A: Well, a partner at Greycroft who invested in Prezent thinks so. They said that there are AI tools available now that can do things agencies used to do at a high cost, and Prezent is trying to solve specific customer needs in business communications.

B: That's interesting! I wonder what they'll do next. Maybe they'll add personalization or multimodality features to their product.

A: Exactly! They also want to add digital avatars to presentations, just like Sythesia and D-ID. Who knows, maybe one day we'll all be using AI for our presentations!
