Unfortunatley, You Should Steer Clear
Fund: NYC Seed
Posted by highlander on 2010-11-10
I've held my breath on this one for a while, but we wasted an incredible amount of time with NYC Seed. They are much celebrated by the NY political and funding communities (eg. by Fred Wilson, who I respect very much), but the low friction, fast up / down process that is promised was anything but fast or low friction. In fact, we very nearly lost our opportunity to raise good money *because* of NYC Seed. If you value your time, do not spend it here. They are a firing squad.
I sincerely hope the city produces a better plan to help startups. How about we start with some tax relief?
