I don’t mean to brag but, I’m in 2022 while most of y’all in 2021. At least being in Australia for NYE has some benefit.

See you soon Colorado. I hope the fires are getting under control in Boulder. So sad to hear about all the families affected already.

Irony is:

Companies who make it hard to apply for jobs while complaining they can’t fill jobs.

Biggest culprits:
• Difficult online application
• Job ad asks for too many skills
• ATS system eliminates people who don’t fit rigid parameters

2022 is right around the corner! 🎉

2021 was a massive year for the #lifesciences: ~80 #biotech IPOs and new drugs being brought to market.

Our team is excited for the year ahead — and we wish everyone a #HappyNewYear!

According to @CBinsights there are ~120 #AI unicorns as of 3Q21 (nearly a 60% increase YoY).

But #innovation without #ethics is not enough.

Let’s make 2022 the year of trustworthy #AI and #AIjustice. @jovialjoy

Happy #NYE!

In #2022, I’m taking inspiration from @Techstars mantra: #givefirst. My favorite accelerator says to #domorefaster — I say, #doless, but be more focused, be faster.

Give first, but do so where you can make the most difference.

[Techstars Boston Accelerator @TechstarsBoston]

Happy New Year from our team at Techstars Boston! We can’t wait to see what is to come from all of you in the New Year — we are here to support you along the way. See you all in 2022!

[Zoe Barry @ZoeBarryCEO]

Happy New Year! May you continue to stay positive & test negative in the coming year 😉 but in all seriousness stay safe and have a wonderful night!

I feel like we are coming back out in the second half with power I…
It’s going to be slow.. and not a way to catch up quickly…
But think bb will want to make a different point…

I had a similar suspicion but my analysis of 100’s of companies shows a 5X increase in average valuation five years post accelerator. I have a bias currently but I ran this analysis before my first class.

Dear @google, maybe browser based everything is not the way. You have matured; clunky integrations, restrictions on mail merge make you look like a gawky teen. + your browser hogs my 16gigs when I have open all the tabs for my job where everything is on a Google sheet, somewhere.

Money talks bullsh*t walks.

I personally have a high concern about programs that offer help without access to capital for women and founders of color.

Help is freely and willingly available, access to capital is not.

At a @techstar standup meeting today I asked @KristinSlink co-founder of @LoanHero advice about what was the most important lesson she would share in terms of fundraising. -
“Start early, just have convos and build relationships.
