Who we are?

Start(up) Reading was created by Todd Deacon, Managing Director @ Techstars, General Partner @ Wildcard Ventures and Partner @ The Fund.

The idea behind Start(up) Reading is to help early stage founders better navigate their decision making through great advice. However there is so much written on the web on building startups, it's a huge pain to decipher between the great from the average. So Start(up) Reading set about building a curated list of excellent written pieces cataloged across 30 topic areas that makes sense for early stage startup founders and their teams along their journey.
