摘要
Today guest is Cameron Teitelman, Founder & CEO of StartX, a non-profit accelerator affiliated with Stanford University whose mission is to fuel the development of Stanford's top entrepreneurs through experiential education. The StartX accelerator is a 10-week program that has no fees and takes zero equity. To date, 220 companies have gone through the program, which have gone on to raise more than $700 million dollars. Jason and Cameron cover StartX’s innovative accelerator model, who should apply to StartX (and who gets in), how to evaluate founder skills, what makes a good mentor, benefits of the lean startup model, successful StartX companies, diversity ... and Cameron's career as a Broadway star in Les Miserables!
