- psycho 15y agoWell, you got it right - YC is broadening its scope - that means that this investment is really kind of new type for Graham and co. I guess, I should not ask what was so cool in AnyVivo but try to say in another words that it looks like a turn to traditional spheres to me.
- rdl 15y agoIt's probably true that YC companies are more willing to have a physical component (producing hardware hasn't worked out very well, but service, inventory, etc. might) now than in the past, but that is probably true of startups in general (Square is a great example; a tiny loss-leader physical product which is the wedge into a trillion dollar business).
