Yes. Whenever we discover that we missed a good startup, we go back and try to figure out why. We've changed the selection process several times because of such mistakes.
We're not so systematic about looking at the applications of groups we fund that don't do well. Partly because when we mistakenly accept a startup, the mistake is at the interview stage, and partly because we don't worry nearly as much about mistakes in that direction.
- malandrew 15y agoInteresting. Are there any lessons you learned upon going back that are particularly memorable?
- pg 15y agoDon't panic if we're funding a lot of groups on the first day of interviews; have someone take a second look at the applications Rtm gives Cs to; pay more attention to the founders than the idea.
