VCs to Entrepreneurs: Seed-Stage Startups OK.... →
Man. This past week has been nothing but doom and gloom in the VC/Angel Funding arena. In some respects, many of these VC Firms have no one to blame but themselves. Year after year, Finance round after finance round, these guys/gals have been pumping money into businesses who have no business plan outside of hopefully being acquired. And yet now, as things begin to melt down, they’re calling...
