I havent been involved in startups in a number of years but at the time when i was the trend was to give a bunch of 20-somethings with an interesting product idea a few million dollars and let them have at it. I wondered then and I still wonder if early stage investors would see better returns if they provided a little more boots on the ground support through either getting an adult into the room or training or whatever.
