one of the best evals of team culture is how often you end up laughing together at standup

Raising from brand name VCs is overrated. By the time they schedule the third call, these funds have already wired the check: - @NewStackVC (Chicago, IL) - @SaaSVentures (Washington, DC) - @fikavc (Los Angeles, CA) - @GoAheadVC (Menlo Park, CA) - @AforeVC (San Francisco, CA) - @EVfund (Indianapolis, IN) - @CultivationCap (St. Louis, MO) - @BoostVC (San Mateo, CA) - @transposevc (San Francisco, CA) - @GreylockVC (San Francisco, CA) - @DormRoomFund (Cambridge, MA) P.S. When they move fast, you need to be ready. Your data room should be open before they ask. Build yours today now for free → @ThePageform

@katiexsocials YES, KATIE!

"The models will never have all the context of a brand." Your competitors don't have it either — @Hightouch does. What a journey, @kashgupta_ and @tejasmanohar. Congratulations on the $150M series D and $2.75B valuation 🪩

🌇 Frontier is for students who want to break into VC from outside the traditional mold. @pejmannozad forewent a degree entirely, while @sacca was minted in the SUNY system and then chose a law degree over an MBA. airtable.com/appnh1ioycr2PP…
