I rarely post here anymore. Please find more timely info and posts on startups, Techstars, and my current Techstars Healthcare accelerator on LinkedIn on these pages: linkedin.com/in/keithcamhi/ linkedin.com/showcase/techs…

I'm thrilled to be running this great new accelerator with Permanente Medicine in Washington DC. Applications open next week!

For those who joined the Techstars Fundraising Workshop today - here's the Vision to Execution Map / Investment Memo document I mentioned, with some links to resources at the bottom. docs.google.com/document/d/1D6…

Attention #founders - today's the day! Join me, along with an esteemed panel of @Techstars alumni to get the inside scoop on our upcoming program and learn from their experiences. Don't miss out! 🗓️: Today, May 24th ⏰: 1:00 pm ET 👉 Register now: tsta.rs/y6NY50OvxyJ

Hey #founders! Getting noticed by investors is tough enough without spamming them. Personalize any outreach & connect the dots between what they seek and what your #startup offers. Build the relationship + stand out from the crowd. (Same goes for accelerator programs. 😉)

Want to win in a competitive market? Be scrappy, customer-obsessed, and execution-focused. #Startups have something big companies can't replicate: speed and agility. As an accelerator MD, I love helping startups harness these strengths to achieve extraordinary progress.

Great #startups are led by founders with unique insight, passion, and strong execution skills. Effective communication and an openness to feedback are key too. As a mentor and investor, I always look for #founders who embody these traits. 🤝

Headwinds aren't as fun as tailwinds, but they can be a breeding ground for great companies. I know firsthand that tough times can lead to amazing innovation (and less competition!) - so embrace the challenge! We’re here to help @Techstars.

Working with limited resources? Focus on a single market to better understand your customers' needs and stand out in a crowded marketplace. Talk to customers and mentors to find the right niche for your business. Your future self will thank you.

Fancy outlet at a new Marriott, cleverly designed to fit only one plug at a time. 🤦‍♂️

Thank you @POTUS and United States government for making the right call. Today you decided for startups, for innovation and for the future. The tech community is grateful. Going forward we will be more diversified, more vigilant and continue to grind to create better world.

I can't think of a bigger modern day wealth or super power than a MASSIVE PROFESSIONAL NETWORK. It is a true unfair advantage and I encourage all young professionals to invest in it day 0 of their career and EVERY SINGLE DAY!

Swept by the Astros is about as bad as you could have drawn it up. Yes, 26 teams had it worse, but that doesn't matter. There need to be massive changes in the front office, at manager, to the lineup. 13 straight years of fielding good-but-not-championship-caliber teams.

Know any startups focused on older adults or their caregivers? Please send them our way - only 7 more days to apply to this extraordinary program!

We are bringing you another exciting panel this Thursday with three active investors to discuss funding the care economy! Register here to reserve your spot - tsta.rs/FGYp50KNMXH @Techstars @pivotalventures
