Last chance to save on dual-event passes to Early Stage 2021

Procrastinators, last-minute decision makers and overwhelmed entrepreneurs heed this call! Your last chance to save $100 or more and attend both TechCrunch Early Stage 2021 bootcamps expires tonight! You’re dedicated to learning the essentials of building a solid early-stage startup, yes?

That’s exactly what you’ll get at TC Early Stage 2021 (Operations & Fundraising: April 1-2 and Marketing & Fundraising: July 8-9). Buy a dual-event pass before the early-bird deadline: Tonight, March 26 at 11:59 pm (PST). Save up to $100 and keep more feathers in your nest.

The two TC Early Stage conferences present distinct experiences — different topics, speakers, subject-matter experts and presentations. They’re highly interactive discussions, so come ready to ask questions. Don’t let qualms about virtual event quality hold you back. Here’s what Chloe Leaaetoa, the founder of Socicraft, had to say about her virtual experience.

“I wondered whether TC Early Stage 2020 was going to be just another virtual online class — long on PowerPoints and short on useful information. But it was engaging and interactive with lots of information I could implement right away.”

Here’s a quick look at what’s on tap in April. Check out the full agenda — with more than 20 presentations. Thanks to video on demand, you can catch sessions you missed after the conference ends with your complementary Extra Crunch membership with ticket purchase. We’ll have more news about the experts and topics for the July TC Early Stage soon.

Drone crash near kids leads Swiss Post and Matternet to suspend autonomous deliveries

A serious crash by a delivery drone in Switzerland have grounded the fleet and put a partnership on ice. Within a stone’s throw of a school, the incident raised grim possibilities for the possibilities of catastrophic failure of payload-bearing autonomous aerial vehicles. The drones were operated by Matternet as part of a partnership with the Swiss Post (i.e. the postal service), which was using the craft to dispatch lab samples from one medical center for priority cases. As far as potential applications of drone delivery, it’s a home run — but twice now the craft have crashed, first with a soft landing and the second time a very hard one. The first incident, in January, was the result of a GPS hardware error; the drone entered a planned failback state and deployed its emergency parachute, falling slowly to the ground. Measures were taken to improve the GPS systems. The second failure in May, however, led to the drone attempting to deploy its parachute again, only to sever the line
