We unpack the numbers and nuances behind the headlines on the Equity show. The headline of this episode tells you that it's a bonus episode about Y Combinator demo day, and the terms we heard most often during the two-day affair.
We talked through our favorites of the batches, geography changes, and diversity shake-up, which included less women getting funded over batches, on social media. We pulled from a number of posts.
We made it through the busy week. Let's talk Monday.
Equity goes down at 7 a.m. on Mondays. Thursday and Friday are at 6 a.m. You can subscribe to us on Overcast and all the casts.
