Who is Y Combinator?
Have you heard of Airbnb, Coinbase, Instacart, Twitch, Dropbox, and Reddit? What do these generational companies have in common? They were all backed by Y Combinator in their pre-seed stage!
Ever since 2005, Y Combinator has been backing the most promising startups at the earliest stages. Today, YC established its reputation as the most prestigious startup accelerator in the world, spotting breakout companies before anyone else. In the 20 years that YC existed, the over 5,000 companies they have invested in hold a combined valuation of $600 billion!
Do not miss the in-person event next Tuesday!
YC partners Jared Friedman, Brad Flora, and Ankit Gupta are in town on April 15th for an off-the-record talk about startups. They will be talking with Danny Sheridan, UMich alum and founder of Fern (YC W23) about what it’s like to be a founder, what they learned from backing billion-dollar startups, and what the “AI-boom” in Silicon valley is all about.
Food and drinks will also be provided. Register now! 🍕
How did this happen?
Good things happen when you try to make it happen – earlier last month, Jared Friedman sent out this tweet, so you know we had to take the shot – and clearly enough, he heard us!
