Why not a usual startup?
- jbverschoor 6y agoSpecial terms. They already did a few million rev.
- tyre 6y agoI don't know anything about the terms or whatever, but we were in the same batch. It was really funny with the whole batch practicing for Demo Day giving revenue numbers, growth rate, etc. We had in tens of thousands of dollars per month in MRR, which was on the higher end. MessageBird, as you said, came to the US already with a _well_ established business. Obviously they weren't competing for the same investors/checks as most of the rest of the batch, but it was still hilarious to hear them pitch next to everyone else.
- zhoujianfu 6y agoYeah, that was annoying as a demo day participant.. I had flagged messagebird as the one I was most interested in to put my $25K check into. And then found out they already had like $50M in revenue I think it was?! Oh well, now I guess I’ll be able to invest soon..
