I've seen a shift from complete uncertainty to certainty, because in 8 years, YC startups have achieved notable success

In the beginning there were a lot of outside speakers, then they started inviting more of their own graduates

It was interesting to note that many of the speakers said that a couple of years ago they were sitting in the audience and looking enviously at the stage


too abstract ;) can you ask more concrete, plz?


All clear :) I guess that startups always face same/similar problems and issues.



What's your favorite story from startup founders?


(Dedicated to Jessica Livingston and Paul Graham)

Jessica Livingston's book "Founders at work" (2007, 32 stories) inspired thousands of founders to start startup.

I find 150+ founders stories to inspire new wave of founders. (+pitchdecs, demoday videos and applications). And finding every day more and more stories! (Sometimes I think that stories find me themselfs.)

It was amazing journey, it change my mind, I rushed into unknnown unknowns, where angels fear to tread... and I want to share this with everyone.

I hope, that FoundersAtWork.io saves 50-100 hours for 1000+ new founders.

It is my "embarrassing MVP", I continue to work, and I need your feedback. (+everyone can contribute founder's story)
