💡 Spotlight - The Seed Stage

YC? Y Bother? The Seed Stage is back. For any founders raising over the next few months, apply to The Seed Stage (co-founded by Hector) to pitch to +1000 VCs & angels in one go, generating competition for your round. It's like YC but without the accelerator. Alumni have raised from the likes of Lightspeed, GV and 20VC.

Application deadline: 9th May 6pm.
