YC reject here. Created a B2C company doing 5M/month revenue in 4 years. Exited. Applied with second company to YC (B2B), rejected again. Hoping to grow it bigger than last time.
Were you not from the states? Are you a solo founder? Are you not "politically" aligned with California? I'm just wondering how can they reject someone of this calibre. Even if your application was different to your eventual success, a mantra is "we invest in people, not ideas".
Hi, I’m also really interested in scalable projects that are focused on environmental and social amelioration. Please email me (in profile) if you’d like to connect.
