SodaStream recruited none other than Astronaut Scott Kelly for an April fool’s video in which they launch new soda producing service.

In his second medical cannabis-related investment in a matter of weeks, Birnbaum will invest NIS 2 million ($550,000) in Israeli home cultivation start-up Seed.

"We want the people in Gaza to have jobs, real jobs, because where there is prosperity there can be peace," Birnbaum said.

"I couldn’t be prouder or more excited to welcome SodaStream to the PepsiCo family," said PepsiCo chief executive officer Ramon Laguarta.

Soda Club, worth $6 m. at its inception, becomes SodaStream, worth $3.2 billion, or more than 500 times more.
