Invite Friends Blog Sree Vijaykumar From the Editor's Desk It is important for startups to understand how VCs measure their success. Venture Capitalists are incentivized to bring in portfolio companies that can boost their portfolio IRR quickly. This helps them raise their next fund.

It's not hard to imagine Facebook one day employing FacioMetrics' tech and its own AI to let you add a Like or one of its Wow/Haha/Angry/Sad emoji reactions by showing that emotion with your face. For now, Facebook tells me it will use FacioMetrics to enhance its Snapchat selfie Lens-style augmented reality face masks that are making their way into its videos and Live broadcasts. There are potentially other more important applications for emotion recognition.
