A significant 50% of 23andMe’s customer base remains uninformed about the company’s bankruptcy and the critical deadline to file claims. The deadline for filing these claims is set for July 14. This lack of awareness could potentially impact many customers’ ability to recover their investments. In other news, the TechCrunch Sessions: AI event is offering an opportunity for exhibitors to showcase their innovations to over 1,200 decision-makers. This event, which promises exposure without a hefty price tag, is available for registration until May 9 or until tables are sold out.
