| | Phil Nadel "Assuming you are unable to sell the company as a whole to a competitor, customer or supplier, think about selling certain assets instead. For instance, if a competitor is only interested in the technology you have developed, including, perhaps any patents, you can sell them your intellectual property." | | Fred Wilson "Do priced equity rounds instead of notes. As I wrote seven years ago, the cost of doing a simple seed equity deal has come way down. It can easily be done for less than $5k in a few days and we do that quite often." | | Fred Destin "What may not be obvious from the outside is that, in early stage venture funds, we really don't have any "junior" people. We have people with brains the size of Trump's ego whose judgement we trust and whose opinion we value." | | Mark Organ "The chief of staff role is an intensely personal one. This is a position scoped for the CEO, and it has elements of both an executive assistant and a COO. Like an EA, a chief of staff works only for the CEO and doesn't have direct reports, except maybe an intern or executive assistant." | Apply today for our Business Development Executive in APAC at Techstars Are you someone who’s not afraid to be defiant, who stands up to the status quo and is an intense adventurer?
