The Future of #VentureCapital and High-tech Entrepreneurship (#PaulBuchheit, #YCombinator) #npintoresearch @resilient_ent


Y Combinator  has developed a new model of startup funding; since 2005 we have funded over 380 startups.

Twice a year we invest a small amount of money (average $18k) in a large number of startups (most recently 65). The startups move to Silicon Valley for 3 months, during which we work intensively with them to get the company into the best possible shape and refine their pitch to investors.

Each cycle culminates in Demo Day, when the startups present to a large audience of investors. But YC doesn't end on Demo Day. We and the YC alumni network continue to help founders for the life of their company, and beyond.

In this talk, I will talk about the Y combinator VC model, introduce who we are, why we are effective, and contrast it with the traditional VC model. Along the way, I'll share some war stories and provide some anecdotal advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur.
