A Quote by Brad Feld

For a long time, I've ranted against naming your startup community 'Silicon Whatever.' Instead, I believe every startup community already has a name. The Boulder startup community is called Boulder. The L.A. startup community is called L.A. The Washington D.C. startup community is called Washington D.C.

The goal shouldn't be to be the next Silicon Valley (there'll always only be one of those) - it's to be your own startup community.

Alexis Ohanian

Todd Park

If you have an idea that you can't get out of your head, do a startup. Otherwise join a startup.

Fred Wilson

Silicon Valley has been developing as a startup community for over 60-70 years. This notion that you can create something in two or five years is foolish.

There's a reason why Silicon Valley is the worldwide innovation center, or why this is the startup valley, because I truly believe startup companies like mine are pushing the economy forward.

Eric Yuan

I've been very fortunate to be at the startup of a lot of different things. I was the startup of the Pancrase organization in Japan. Became a big figure over there. Then I was in the UFC and was at the startup of that, and I was a big figure in that. Twice. Not only in the beginning but also when it was taken over.

Ken Shamrock

If someone is choosing between joining McKinsey or your startup it's very unlikely they're going to work out at the startup.

Sam Altman

The first thing that any city that's trying to create a startup community or an entrepreneurial ecosystem that's vibrant should do is get rid of the idea that they're trying to be like Silicon Valley.

Techstars is truly global; you'll see us continue to expand all our programs worldwide, including accelerators, our venture capital, as well as the UP Global programs including Startup Weekend, Startup Next, Startup Digest, etc.

David Cohen

When it comes to starting startups, in many ways, it's easier to start a hard startup than an easy startup.

Sam Altman

Forget startup companies. The next frontier is startup countries.

Peter Thiel

San Francisco is a great startup community that you shouldn't even try to model yourself after because it's just special.

David Cohen

There are too many ways that a startup gig can go sideways. If the startup won't agree to hefty severance, pass.

Daniel Lyons

Seasteads are man-made islands that float permanently on the ocean with any measure of a political autonomy. They would essentially be startup societies where people could form whatever kind of community they wanted.
