A hardware startup with no funding is a risky venture.
A hardware startup with a lot of funding and a lot of momentum has a lot less risk.
For the devices we use... the funding models are completely screwed up. Angel funding isn't sufficient for hardware.
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.
Most startup entrepreneurs unnecessarily spend half their time and give up half their equity in search of funding from angel investors and venture capitalists. Tens of millions of dollars are available to them for free from partners who not only don't want their equity, they don't even want to be paid back.
One startup I dream of funding is the one that kills the record companies.
I am a partner at CrunchFund, a venture capital firm with investments in many startups around the world. I am also a limited partner in many other venture funds which have their own startup investments.
I think funding risky projects is very important.
We're not in hardware for hardware's sake. We're in hardware to be able to express all our platform and productivity software in a way that's unique.
The poor man who enters into a partnership with one who is rich makes a risky venture.
There are so many similarities between a startup venture and a political campaign - the rhythm, the tempo, the hours, the intensity.
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.
Venture capital is about capturing the value between the startup phase and the public company phase.
I propose that matchmaking should be approached like a corporate business venture. It can be risky, but I have discovered that the potential profits from acquisitions and mergers cannot be underestimated.
A family is a risky venture, because the greater the love, the greater the loss... That's the trade-off. But I'll take it all.
When you write a piece of software you assume a certain type of hardware. If you assume hardware that's too powerful then you can't sell many copies cause very few people have that machine. If you assume hardware that's too simple your product can't do as much.
During times of plenty - when venture funding is abundant and startups multiply like rabbits - every business looks like a winner.
