Editor's Notes
- Building a beautiful product
- Focused on one scenario, gaming
- Build some incredible IP such as liquid cooling and fanless tech
- Back when I started there were no accelerators or incubators Microsoft Ventures: a program built by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs Massive footprint, accelerators, funding, and routes to market Microsoft Ventures is a new Innovation Platform – Discover, Build, and Grow Startups.
- Accelerators all around the world 200+ startups graduated 80% exited with funding 30% raised Series A 9 acquired It’s not just about mature markets 100+ innovation centers that are focused on developing students and entrepreneurs because we believe that the democratization of entrepreneurship is inevitable.
- 3000 Startups 30 accelerators in London Gov. created incentives for angel investors 150GBP EISSEIS 85-95M GBP for seed , 65M Angel. Avg. Seed ~170K GBP . Almost no convertibles Opening a company in minutes Simpler to IPO in UK than US Finance institutions Media and Entertainment companies
- British reserve and American exuberance may be well-worn clichés, but like most clichés they carry an underlying truth. While British and American entrepreneurs increasingly harbour similar ambitions, when it comes to articulating them, cultural norms have a tendency to reveal themselves. In pitch situations, this can materially hamper British entrepreneurs’ ability to raise money. - Robin Klein Index ventures 3000 Startups 30 accelerators in London Gov. created incentives for angel investors 150GBP EISSEIS 85-95M GBP for seed , 65M Angel.
