This matters because the four-year co-founder vesting schedule frequently harms #StartUp founders’ interests. Sometimes it damages their startup irreparably

Unsurprisingly, many of the hardest hit startups are related to the travel and mobility industry. https://t.co/xFi4C5a0P2 #Covid_19 #startups

[Proper Orange @properorange]

The start-ups in high demand tend to be those in sectors benefiting from the lockdown, such as #telemedicine, cloud computing and collaboration software. #startups

CEOs can’t meet investors in person, making it harder to know if they’ll get along personally — an important consideration if big backers are going to be involved, perhaps on the board, for years to come. #startups #COVID19

That zero-sum approach is now being reimagined as the coronavirus pandemic, which has spared no industry, rips across the #technology sector. #startups https://t.co/gBQl9iqTh5

Thank you @andyhusbands for what you're doing here. It's a smart & reasonable approach. #BusinessOwner #CoronavirusOutbreak

Venture-backed #startups are still excluded https://t.co/LZYwJ308kB

The challenge of running a #startup that has a high physical component has become one of the big themes in the world of #tech in the last several weeks. #COVID19 https://t.co/bdyVbrGTm5

@CambMA Thank you so much. Much appreciated. Nice to see that the city reacts with reason to all this chaos. We love to live and work in @CambMA.

[Proper Orange @properorange]

We were wondering if @CambMA would consider lifting parking restrictions (essentially putting the meters on a holiday schedule), so that staff and service providers of small Cambridge businesses who would usually rely on public transportation could come in by car. #COVID19

With some investors departing the market, deal terms are getting better, the competition is less keen. It’s the #vc equivalent of buy (actually) low and sell high. Founders should expect big haircuts on valuation (the 20-30% range). #COVIDー19 https://t.co/WkIRLUYdym

[Proper Orange @properorange]

#startups have found a way around that and now run many services on top of #WhatsApp, validating with customers quickly and cheaply. https://t.co/OBpWCSnhuC

During these unprecedented times, tech companies need to keep informed of the facts, recommended practices, potential legal issues, business risk, and what their peers are doing in order to make the most prudent business decisions. #COVID19

Not quite sure what the @properorange team will do today. Do we actually have to stay at the office and do some work? #COVID19

In #Boston, a city where consumer-focused techs are few and far between and B2B and life sciences #startups dominate, hype carries significantly less value. https://t.co/gzuN3q1vk4

[Proper Orange @properorange]

It’s a humbling shift for an industry that long saw itself as an engine of job creation and #innovation #startups https://t.co/z3O1jcVj34

We love to be a part of this community. The introduction of Venture Café is among several developments that have helped transform the neighborhood into a full-fledged #innovation district. @CICcambridge @VentureCafe

Of course, you, gentle reader have now brought out your wallet and are in the 'shut up and take my money' phase already. @jmattheij #startups #venture https://t.co/vU0SKB0W7M

[Proper Orange @properorange]

There’s no shortage of brainpower in this New England hub. Much of Boston’s startup activity emerges from top-tier universities like Harvard and MIT.
