You may think that ICOs have come and gone. And I honestly hope you are right.

Capital Formation — the killer app for blockchain?

Are you a <a href="//gzht888.com/tagged/blockchain" target="_blank">blockchain</a> startup looking to raise funds for your project or to launch an <a href="//gzht888.com/tagged/ico" target="_blank">ICO</a>.

Each school year at <a href="//roughdraft.vc" target="_blank">Rough Draft Ventures,</a> General Catalyst’s student-focused program that backs founders at the university level, we meet hundreds of students who are building game-changing businesses disrupting incumbent industries. Today, we are excited to announce a new program to support student-founded companies focused on selling to <a href="//gzht888.com/tagged/smbs" target="_blank">SMBs</a>.

Each year, a number of<a href="//roughdraft.vc" target="_blank"> Rough Draft</a> founders apply, interview, and join Y Combinator’s (YC) accelerator program. YC is known for their rapid-fire interviews, so we help prepare our companies by connecting them with founders from the RDV <a href="//gzht888.com/tagged/network" target="_blank">network</a> who have graduated from YC for sessions focused on mock interviews and general guidance on how to navigate the process. We’ve aggregated top advice and experiences and are excited to share this with the broader student founder community.

Student Founders, Here’s How to Ace your YC Interview

Start with your vision and mission. It might seem daunting to compete against the steep salaries, hefty benefits packages, and the army of recruiters that arrive on campus each fall from companies like Amazon or <a href="//gzht888.com/tagged/google" target="_blank">Google</a>. But as a <a href="//gzht888.com/tagged/startup" target="_blank">startup</a> you’ve got one huge advantage that no giant company can stack up against: the ability for a new employee to make a bigger impact. And if you can identify talented individuals with whom your company’s mission resonates, you’ll be able to attract and retain employees at a greater capacity. In fact, <a href="//www.theladders.com/p/19294/millennials-career-survey" target="_blank">a recent study shows that roughly two thirds of workers care more about the mission of an organization than how much the organization can pay them</a>. As a founder, you’ve been able to rally mentors, team members, and investors around your mission. It’s no different when recruiting and growing your team. Determine the best way to communicate your vision in online job postings and in person meetings. Make sure your entire team is consistently sharing this narrative with any prospective hires.

The Student Founder Guide to Making Your First Key Hires

Recently, I read a post on Hackernoon by <a href="//medium.com/@aashaysanghvi" data-anchor-type="2" data-user-id="ce05dff9f9d6" data-action-value="ce05dff9f9d6" data-action="show-user-card" data-action-type="hover" target="_blank">Aashay Sanghvi</a> titled “The Startup Scene at Harvard”. It was very well-crafted and I found it super interesting to take a peek into the startup scene of a top entrepreneurship school in the nation. It inspired me to write my own version of the post to give prospective Brunonians an idea of what Brown is like and to give past alums some pride on how much the scene has grown since they graduated.
