Funded By Night is not another run-of-the-mill startup showcase. Demo your startup, and as night falls, one awesome company will walk away with a $100,000.00 convertible note.
Our apologies for not updating everyone earlier. We have officially locked down a date for StartupCraft II - February 26th, 2011! While we'll miss being uncomfortably close to our fellow gamers in our beautiful SoMa loft space, we're happy to announce that the good folks at IGN have offered up their more than ample space for StartupCraft II.

Never mind enormous yachts: Peter Thiel is spending his billions on space travel, life extension, artificial intelligence, and paying top students not to go to college. Peter A. Thiel, the iconoclastic, libertarian 43-year-old venture capitalist and macro-hedge-fund investor. When the speakers finished, James R. O'Neill, who runs the Thiel Foundation, introduced his boss as someone "who works...
We knew Ron Conway and his "SV Angel" were prolific angel investors. But we didn't know he was this prolific. An Excel file, purportedly of SV Angel's entire portfolio, has made its way into our inbox, and we have reproduced it here. It lists all 228 of the firm's investments, ranging from Trulia in 2005 to OnSwipe in 2011. There isn't anything TOO sexy here -- no terms or valuations, but the lis
Keep that scene in mind as we head into today’s post about CEOs, boards of directors, and the relationship between them. While I don’t claim to have any particular gift in “managing” a board, I have learned a bit over the years by being a CEO, sitting as independent director, and chatting with other CEOs, venture capitalists, and independent board members.

Artists: sell your music & merch directly to your fans. Fans: discover new music and directly support the artists who make it.
So far in it’s brief existence, Instagram has had a wild ride. It started out as a location app called Burbn, then pivoted before it even launched to just photos. Within a week, the photo sharing app was up to 100,000 users, and then 1 million. Today, the company announced that it just raised $7 million from Benchmark and others.
Much is being said about starting-up. But nothing beats the learning from actually starting-up. Here’s our bit of learning. All I want to say is, if you have ever wanted to start, start right away. Because, you have much to gain and very little to lose.
Peter Thiel has made billions in social media. He's moving on--bankrolling ideas he thinks will save the world. Peter Thiel wants to save the world.

Almost every problem--the shortcomings of our political and educational systems, the lingering financial disaster, market bubbles, energy crises...
