Founders, just one office hour with @paultoo or @daltonc can change the trajectory of your company, and to have both of them on your side, is game changing! What an unbelievable combo! Had the fortunate chance to work with PB as our group partner when we went through YC, and…
Nexus Venture Partners is thrilled to announce Snabbit's Series A funding. Snabbit, India's first quick-service app for on-demand home services. We are excited to back the Snabbit team. @suvirsujan I @_puneetKumar I Aayush Agarwal #homeservices #innovation #India…
This needed to be said and @paulg has the superpower to name it and give founders the courage to follow this! @bchesky talks on this topic, especially the one with Lenny, is one of the most recommended talks by me to founders of scaling companies.
Puneet has been amazing to work with
Work with Puneet. He would be an amazing partner to you in your startup journey. @_puneetKumar

Excited to join @NexusVP as a Venture Partner and pay it forward to the startup ecosystem. After building multiple startups and investing in companies globally as part of @ycombinator, I am eager to partner with and learn from the next wave of entrepreneurs. Looking forward to…
Before we applied to @ycombinator, many folks said Jack and I were "too old" for it. They were well meaning, but never has worse advice been given. Our Group Partners @bradflora and @_puneetKumar accelerated us on product, sales, and even now on hiring. 10/10. Just apply.
Wow, just watched this, what a great epsiode by @daltonc and @lennysan, a must watch! I don't know anyone else who knows more about startups than Dalton. Kudos to Lenny for getting so many nuggets out of him in this episode.
The deadline to apply for YC S23 is tomorrow, Friday, April 7 at 8pm PT! Apply at ycombinator.com/apply.
Why should you apply to YC? ycombinator.com/why
Some of the open core companies in my YC W23 group this batch: github.com/dittofeed/ditt… github.com/fern-api/fern github.com/inqueryio/inqu… github.com/Mirrorful/mirr… github.com/map3xyz/superc… github.com/ai-sidekick/si… github.com/swishjam/swish… github.com/uptrain-ai/upt…
Thousands of startups and small businesses are at risk due to the SVB failure. We ask for depositors to be made whole, and for regulation to prevent this catastrophe. 650 founders who employ more than 22,000 people, have already signed. ycombinator.com/blog/urgent-si……
Congratulations to the 2023 YC Top Companies! There are now 16 public YC companies, 290 private YC companies and 33 exits that are valued at over $150M, and over 80 that are worth more than $1B. ycombinator.com/topcompanies
We have a new request for startups: Climate Tech 🌎 Here are a few ideas we'd like to see founders apply with: ycombinator.com/blog/rfs-clima…
I made a video with @ycombinator! Did my best to break down the differences between two common sales motions for early stage startups: bottoms up and top down. Thank you @zachboth for making this happen and making me look and sound so good :)

Another great example of @ycombinator making behind-the-scenes knowledge public and freely available to everyone. One of the best videos by @mwseibel and @daltonc on tarpit ideas and why founders keep falling for this repeatedly! Here's to knowing the common paths of failure!

This is a gem of a post by Jared @snowmaker at @ycombinator! Anyone thinking of starting up, recently started up, or pivoting; please watch this, think about it for a while, and then watch it once again. Still can't believe so much good advice can be given in just 30 mins!

The true value of @ycombinator from the horse's mouth! There is so much misconception about YC and whether it's worth it. You have to watch this to know the truth. P.S. We are not mafia! Well, almost 😃
