Hey Jason, thanks so much for your candor and open opinions on angel investors. It was a great crowd and vibe with lots of interested people looking to grow this tech community of ours. Thanks for opening your office too, free drinks!
I didn’t have a chance to catch you at your office afterward, but I definitely look forward to SU6.
At what point do you feel is the right time to start asking for funding? (With an idea, after a prototype, after a successful project, etc.)
Thanks again Jason.
