@jonaswillett1 @a16z@MTSlive@Substack Station DC has a newsletter about the intersection of startups and government for its members.
They could be a good collaborator if @thecollectiv3e ever launches a DC chapter

Young people are the only talent investment worth making.
Early career hires outperform.
They're adaptable. Move fast. Low ego
Here are 10 examples of young ppl crushing:
@tobinwtang: Waterloo β Wispr Flow β Polymarket
@EmilyHan: WashU β @partiful β Phia
@ansonlin: Lazard β @boardyai β @stanforcreators
@juliaalvarengas: Harvard β @dexbythirdlayer β Founder
@richzou: Northeastern β @parable_vc β @xai
@maya_l39: Western β @NotionHQ β @vercel@k2briian: Cornell β Founder β Phia
@emmainSTEM: Boston β GE Aerospace β @useKled@risashimmura: Berkeley β @SusaVentures β @thecollectiv3e@juliali: Northwestern β @partiful β @joinaviato
All of them started as interns and took massive bets on themselves.
The companies they joined recognized young, hungry talent.
All of them crushed it.
At @thecollectiv3e we've built a talent pipeline that connects candidates directly to top startups backed by @ycombinator, @a16z, @sequoia, etc.
I've helped place 16+ candidates in the last 3 months.
No job boards. No AI. Purely warm intros to founders.
Right now I have 50+ companies looking to hire young talent. Summer 2026 interns + full time roles.
I want to place 100 ppl before June 1st.
