Over the past few months, with the domestic business circles in communicating with friends, I found a lot of people ask me questions related to the incubator Y Combinator (hereinafter referred to as YC) of. As the most successful incubators, YC successfully spawned Airbnb, Dropbox, oak furniture land OMGpop, Stripe, Heroku, Parse, SocialCam, Xobni, Reddit, Loopt, Parakey, Appjet other familiar companies. Although I am not a well-known media person or Internet expert, but still want to use their personal experience to talk about my eyes YC, hope to bring you some inspiration from the "holy venture" Silicon Valley.
From the beginning of 2012, I have been to the identity of angel investors to participate in a variety of sizes Roadshow (securities issuers issuing certificates to investors before the recommended oak furniture land volume activity). More famous Launch, 500 Startup, Plug and play tech center; where the famous YC, really left me with a deep impression, or even shocked, shocked not only because they are, please go to the investor in Silicon Valley There are head, face, figure, more importantly, the value of the entire day Silicon Valley roadshow show the most. It can be said is a concentrated environment of Silicon Valley and YC own unique culture. What is the value of the Silicon Valley?
Continuous improvement in output "idea" at the same time, and it gets all kinds of success stories come out of. The winner (large oak furniture land companies promising, or angels) after experiencing setbacks, are willing to help needy entrepreneurs. Such a virtuous cycle of creating a unique Silicon Valley angel investors, large companies, entrepreneurial culture of the Trinity. So Silicon Valley entrepreneurs who have the kind of momentum is not afraid of failure, the courage to break the kind of self-confidence. Because they know: Whether successful or not, can be the Silicon Valley oak furniture land of tolerance, acceptance, oak furniture land when they need help that's always oak furniture land someone a helping hand environment. Most appealing venture brand YC
YC As the world's most successful incubator, its appeal may be "abnormal" to describe the world will be in the brightest heroes roadshow day biannual flocked eagerly, expectantly pick their favorite company addition to the traditional major VC partner-level investors, as well as outside the traditional Silicon Valley super angel (Paypal mafia, facebook help those), countries Tyrant (north of Russia Yuri, south India Gandhi family, oak furniture land the West has to sell oil crowd, east of Hong Kong Small Superman and BAT, which is Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent) and budding Angels (lawyers, doctors, successful entrepreneurs, etc.).
Even artists are often joined in the fun entertainment, such as the film "Steve Jobs," oak furniture land "The Butterfly Effect" starring Ashton Kutcher, the San Francisco Giants' running back (forget the name), representatives from Hollywood's young money entertainment company (Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj's company), as well as former oak furniture land NBA Trail Blazers small forward O'Neill (the words of James and Dr Dre Beats investment should make a lot of money, just a few months before Anthony voted in children publication company, I do not know Bryant Sha). The audience is large investment community coffee, YC people the answer is not nervous NO. They not only will not be nervous, but really enjoyed standing on the stage that just a 2 minutes. Each one has a kind of graduate YC Dominating oak furniture land feeling lecture typhoon sound, like everyone, "Steve Jobs," and then the world. I think the real success YC turned himself into a super start-ups common brand. For investors who, YC value out of the company, as the ladies know that Hermes bag is definitely better than LV, Prada expensive, like the men know a Rolls Royce car certainly Bi Binshi upscale, as in the actual product quality did not So when the big difference (insiders do not tucao), the brand is the key to their greatest value. YC established brand trust: his mouth YC spoon origin, on behalf of the successful financing, YC graduates cathartic certainly exudes confidence.
I think in addition to innovative business founder Paul Graham, personal influence, oak furniture land more importantly, YC excellent mentor resources and a huge alumni network. YC mentor rich resources in doubt, but I want to emphasize the attitude of these mentors entrepreneurs. In YC day, it can be said that the entrepreneur mentor parents, they can talk about anything, close co-operation. oak furniture land In addition to venture outside of regular oak furniture land exchange with each other and forged a profound oak furniture land friendship (sincere friendship, not on the surface), and sometimes oak furniture land there will be a mentor to follow YC entrepreneurs start such a situation (such as entrepreneurs have a mentor to follow out the creation of a service the phone together offline business model).
Another oak furniture land is the alumni network, YC hatch now more than 800 companies in more than 30 fields, not only to maintain close contact with the founder of the session between the alumni in their internal activities inside, YC managers often ask alumni across th to lecture, Canxu. YC company but there is a very deep sectarian division (I think), they support each other, full of loyalty. Superior data highlights on day roadshow many companies appear, there is a large part of YC alumni support. Within the "factions" other forms of mutual aid, sharing oak furniture land of resources within similar oak furniture land industries alumni ah, investment YC alumni success oak furniture land of the new company, ah, another product interoperability between YC company ah (YC investor roadshow Day website is a YC company), are showing YC alumni consciousness. Even Silicon Valley a lot of media people agree that YC mafia will replace Paypal Mafia leaders in Silicon Valley start-ups This is YC unique culture.
