On August 9, people who have previously ran hatched events and PR, along with a former social media director Andreessen Horowitz, are organizing a small event for the invitation, TechCrunch has learned.
THE To make the summit They will cover the 80 early stage founders and teach them how to work with the press and run their own social media, the organizers promise. The end for the event is $ 600.
The YC was fired by most of the people who put into this event between a little redundancies about a year ago and a larger one in 2023. These redundancies were amazing then, because the events of Y Combinator were always very popular and was an important power to make San Francisco for the junction for the node. (Of course, the center of this universe is Openai associated with the YC, based in San Francisco and is run by former YC president Sam Altman.)
People who put this in this event because they are frightened in how often newly formed businesses are driven to believe that they have to pay tens of thousands of dollars to hire PR and social media services, a person who participated in TechCrunch said.
Still, after the newly established businesses that usually go viral, such as Cluely, the founders feel pressured to do the same.
It is also true that a single publication of social media can make an early stage start to viral these days. The founders of the app Vibe Rork encoding start was almost broke when a tweet virus led them to raise $ 2.8 million and find a point in the A16Z Speedrun program. The start of defense technology, Theseus attracted a contract with the US Special Forces, $ 4.3 million funding and a point in the YC, from a viral post.
If people behind the new event could help YC founders, they believe they can help the founders who are not part of the famous program – and cheap without abandoning equality.
