1. Several startups, including Airtable, Handshake, and Opendoor, have announced they are "refounding" recently, indicating a significant change or shift in their business models or AI product launches.
2. Airtable's co-founder and CEO, Howie Liu, clarified that this is not a pivot but a "refounding moment," as it involves building upon the existing platform rather than changing direction due to past mistakes.
3. Handshake's chief marketing officer, Katherine Kelly, explained that their aim is to reintroduce startup culture into an established business. This could mean increased work hours and office presence requirements for employees.
