Кирилл Клоков – директор по продукту в стартапе ezhome, сооснователь бизнес-инкубатора МГУ, а также выпускник стендфордского акселератора StartX – написал для Firrma колонку о важных аспектах привлечения инвестиций в Кремниевой Долине.  Почему инвесторы из долины инвестируют только в компании из долины? По одной простой причине – у них нет времени. Каждый венчурный инвестор сидит в совете директоров 4-5 компаний, играет в гольф с другими инвесторами и ходит на прогулки на выходных – такой спокойный и нормал... →

As Uber continues to reap ever more funding to expand its on-demand transportation app into more categories and countries, one of its smaller, regional cab-hailing rivals is quietly expanding into its own adjacent services: Gett, the startup with service in 50 cities globally whose app can be used to hail black cabs in London, is today adding a new courier service. For a flat fee of £6… Read More... →

Well, that’s one way to respond when someone doesn’t like your startup. After a Stanford student spotted an internship opening at The League, they declared that they were “totally and utterly ashamed that this dating service came out of Stanford,” and asked, “Is it possible to get any more elitist than this? Does it even cross your mind that you are endorsing… Read More... →

The last 5-10 years have been an extraordinary time for early stage tech founders to raise money. But easy access to capital has ingrained some bad habits among founders.

I’m taking a last look around the room. It’s five in the morning and the black car is idling outside. The driver has already called me and I quietly whispered that I was coming down. My wife, my long-limbed and tangled in sheets, is asleep. In the small light on my bedside table I see her settle into the warm place where I just was and I wish I could lie back down to sleep.… Read More... →

Про венчуры. Смотрю народ в ленте переживает, про более низкие раунды, изменение требований к стартапам и все такое. Смешно. Ничего не поменялось. Жизнь циклична. В период роста фондового рынка все хотят только роста и кажется, что так будет вечно. В период высокой волатильности, падения рынка акций, рисков ухудшения экономической ситуации, хочется не роста, а выживаемости проектов, а в перспективе – дивидендов. Поэтому, временно, подчеркиваю, временно, приоритеты большинства инвесторов меняются. Оценки ста... →
