Hi there,
To end 2020, I asked you, our very smart readership, the following question:
What is a seed/Series A-stage startup that you think is going to be a beast, and why?
And boy did you respond.
In that newsletter, I also added the following note:
Please don’t be that person who names their own company or an investment they've made.
Alas, many of you couldn’t resist. So I tried to remove all the glaringly obvious conflicts and people shilling their own stuff from the hundreds of submissions.
Below are some of the companies that were mentioned with a shoutout to the reader/tweeter who brought them to our attention. BTW, and for 100% clarity — this is not investment advice. These just looked interesting. Where possible, I’ve also included the reason the reader shared this company.
We'll share more in coming newsletters.
