I hope that there is some kind of 1:1 they can do here. We're part of a startup in a non-techy city. We're a service business and although our immediate future is bright, I have major questions about how to scale our business outside of acquiring similar companies doing stuff close to what we're doing and changing their strategy. Sure, there are mentors here who have grown a business...but I want YC-enabled growth...
Which non-techy city? We are based out of Melbourne Australia. All the startup events is 100% startup founders with the next uber/airbnb/facebook and zero mentors/advisors/investors.
What we realized that the success of startup is not talent and perseverance.
It's how much money you have to bootstrap, who do you know, what city your startup is based out of and how many VCs you can approach.
