Starting your startup (session video)

On day 4 at TechStars this summer, we held a session called “Starting your startup”. Brad Feld and Jason Mendelson of Foundry Group, Greg Reinacker of Newsgator, and Andrew Currie of Email Publishing (and more) talked with our 26 new founders about startup ideas, the evolution and cycles they go through, consumer web vs. B2B, products, leveraging technology, people, what kills most startups, and much more. The session lasted a few hours including Q&A. The panel discussion is below. We’re planning to release many of our 40 or session sessions this summer on startups – we hope you enjoy this first one.

Sorry about the occasional fan noise in the room – we’ll try to get that fixed for next time. Also, as a tip – if you turn the sound down, it’s a great way to watch some guys eating for 10-15 minutes. Be sure to subscribe to the TechStars blog for all the future session videos we’ll be releasing this summer. Oh, and yes, we know our permalinks have no subscription link – we’ll fix it soon – we’re a startup too.
