More like "VC Compatible Startup Ideas 2020"
It's totally feasible to start a successful company outside of these ideas. I think this list is helpful because they answer the "why now" question that VCs are looking for.
In other words, this list is helpful if you're trying to start a $10B company today.
- keithwhor 7y agoNot to be too cheeky, but this is mostly a list of trends dictated by companies started three or more years ago. Meaning it's actually "VC Compatible Startup Ideas 2017." Outside of Developer Tools (I'm a fan!) I would say your advice -- it's feasible to start a company outside of these ideas -- is probably exactly where you want to be looking if you're starting a company today. Daniel's an investor, so he's casting a net for startups / founding teams he hasn't heard of yet. Content marketing is dealflow 101. That said, if you're a founder in one of these spaces, he has a fantastic reputation, so you should absolutely reach out. He wouldn't have posted it if he wasn't looking for awesome people!
- a13n 7y agoYeah good point, if you're starting one of these today you might already be a bit late.
