Thanks for your insights. I was quite successful selling sponsorship package for an not-for-profit organisation I cofounded a while back. Industry knowledge is probably a weakness, what's the best way to gain industry knowledge? (following HN is definitely one good way)

HN only covers a smallish section of the tech industry. What so many techies lack is knowledge of other industries or connections to other industries. So if you go work for a few years in finance, retail, oil exploration or whatever, you're going to be quite an interesting co-founder for technology focused startup founders.

  Totally agree! A cross-disciplinary approach is definitely the future of... well pretty much every industry, thanks for the advice :)
