YC was immensely helpful for us in a lot of ways. Definitely happy to go into more detail offline but two things I really liked were that there are so many companies in the healthcare space now that have come out of YC and regulation is a hugely scary aspect of the field and getting advice from them on how to navigate many things saved me so much time and headache. YC also very much redefined how I personally think about an MVP and it's usually a lot more minimal than I initially realise. As the community grows bigger, a lot of this will become even better. I almost wish we were slightly further along when we started as a lot of the prolems that companies in our batch were facing are starting to affect us now that we're not in set-up mode. The key thing for me is that we have to make sure we do right by patients above all and I have to integrate that with all of the other advice that sometimes conflicted in my head.
- ablekh 7y agoI greatly appreciate your prompt and very helpful feedback. The aspects that you mentioned are certainly interesting and, while the regulation aspect is not a significant issue in the domain I'm concerned about, the MVP aspect is certainly very much applicable. Thank you as well for your kind offer to connect offline; I would love to chat. Please send me a quick e-mail (aleksandr.blekh@gmail.com) and I will be happy to connect.
