Last week was filled with excitement as we attended Y Combinator demo day activities. However, it wasn’t the only highlight in the startup world. In the latest episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, Mary Ann, Becca, and Alex discussed their favorite pitches from the new YC companies and a venture capital fund aiming to be the “investment and innovation arm of the autism community.”
Becca highlighted Seso’s innovative fintech approach in the agricultural sector, while Alex shared insights on Home From College and its recent Seed funding round.
To wrap up, we delved into the upcoming Ibotta and Rubrik IPOs. The Rubrik IPO, in particular, could be a pivotal moment for unprofitable unicorns seeking urgent exits. Our discussion spanned the entire startup journey, from inception to maturity, making it a fitting end to the week!
