I spent a little time today refining my executive summary. This is my second draft and I think that the feedback I have received so far has been very useful. Thanks to everyone who reviewed and gave me feedback! It’s hard to know what to put into an executive summary. How [...]
I am a software engineer turned entrepreneur working on a stealth social networking startup. And I’m looking for funding. Oh… you have? Well, it seems that scenarios like this are all too common. So how did I find myself in this situation?
It all started in June 2006 when my best friend [...]
