Advantage: Demo DayAt the conclusion of the program, Y Combinator organizes an event, known as Demo Day, for the companies to showcase their products to a room full of investors. The companies in the summer YC program take part in two Demo Days: one in Boston and another in Mountain View, CA, while the winter group just presents in Mountain View. Dozens of the top angels and venture capitalists from around the area take time out of their day to attend this event because they know that Y Combinator produces quality companies. These startups have been prescreened by YC and are hungry for their next round of investment, so one can understand why investors attend. |
