YCombinator pays entrepreneurs up to $600 in travel charges to have the chance for YC to interview them. What does that tell you about the value of lowering the barrier to pitch?
- jasonmcalacanis 17y agoThat, is an excellent point. I think there are many young folks who would not come if they didn't do that, just like there are folks who won't apply to NY Angels for $150. Frankly, there are better models coming into the space like TechStars, TheFunded/Founders Institute, YCombinator and ycombinator. It's never been a better time to be an entrepreneur.... except for 1979 in software, 1994 in the internet, 2003 in the internet and, well, now. :-)
