Ryan Junee has experience starting and investing in startups. He co-founded Omnisio in 2007 which was funded by Y Combinator, and later founded Inporia in 2011 which raised $1.3M from investors. Some of his advice for startups includes focusing your idea using surveys, minimizing cycle time between iterations, talking to customers early, and pitching with a compelling problem/solution narrative and demonstration of your product. Acqui-hires, where larger companies acquire startups primarily for their engineering talent, are also discussed as a potential exit.
