Stefan Gomez YC Alumn, music startup co-founder & CTO

I've been through the rigorous YCombinator application process, and raised $2M in funding from a top-tier VC in an industry that is hard to raise money for (music technology). Also helped grow my startup to over 20M monthly uniques, to it's ultimate talent acquisition. Can help with all the learnings over the course of that entire period, as related to bootstrapping, incubators (YC specifically), raising venture capital, the music & music+tech industry, web application development & scaling, dealing with struggles and failures, and ultimately the acquisition process, including dealing with potential whole-co sales, not just "acquihires." Also have many learnings from previous startup experience at BillShrink, Foodily, Color, and Science-Inc.
