I have been working on starting my own data analytics business in the last few months. I have the experience, the certifications, and some good contacts and potential clients, but nothing else so far. I have been offered a temporary position (for a year, at best) working at  a big company as an outsourced employee,…

A potential sales director just asked me if we had got our licence to sell our software globally. I’d never heard of needing such a thing and to avoid looking stupid, I gave a vague, non-committed answer, politician style! Have I missed something? Our product is SAAS in the agritech sector to be marketed globally.

I’m still an unpaid intern, but I’ve been getting a lot of growth – both new users and contacts – for the startup app I work for, and it would be nice to get some gas money. My founder lives in NYC and lives quite well judging off the Snaps he posts … so I…

I joined a startup in the 2nd month as marketing consultant and two months later turned down a full time job offer to work full time with this startup, for a lesser salary, and the promise of 5% equity at the end of one year. We have not signed a contract yet. However since joining, I…

What is the best way to oust an uncooperative cofounder from an LLC? We do not have an operating agreement and do not have money for a buy out. This founder wrote our software, which technically we do not have rights to use.

Anyone else surprised about Dave McClure and various VC’s being called out for their inappropriateness toward female entrepreneurs?

I have been working at a startup for one and a half years. In the beginning I was there just for the opportunity of learning and embracing new challenges. I was still graduating and a full-time job was not my main worry. Later, I agreed with the founder to start taking this more seriously, so…

I have a US Delaware Corporation. But I’m a foreign entrepreneur. It seems like I have to be physically present in US to open a company bank account. How do I show in record that I have paid money for the stock certificates I issue myself without a bank account?

We are a start-up moving into our next stage of development and we are having some hurdles in attaining capital. My question is, is it possible to take out two business loans to equate to the the amount needed to fulfill our startup cost? The total amount needed to get our start up going is…

We went through an accelerator and raised a small convertible note afterwards. Co-founder bailed, company stalled and no progress has been made for 2 years due to burnout of remaining co-founder. Money has run out. No contact with investors. Now ready to give it another go, but money has run out. Is it a must…

I just listened to this anonymous TED talk http://adbl.co/2qH5eGi about how mental illness is rife in Silicon Valley and how technology products actually make it worse and SV is doing nothing about it.  Sounds like a 1% non-problem to me.   Is it really a thing?

So, the startup that I was a founder of … just fell apart.  There were multiple founders, and we are all angry and are going our separate ways.  We are not currently speaking to one another, but were great friends before all of this happened (friends for 10 years). To those of you that have…

I have an idea on creating an app to connect pet lovers all over the world. However, after 6 months of hard work, we just found out there is a website (and app) called yummy pets that’s been around for 6 years. Now my team is torn apart and they all gave up, except for me….

We are data startup around cloud/big data. Most of our technical employees are currently working remote (Romania). The problem is that from time to time (every 3 months or so) we are experiencing downtimes because of technical issues. How do you handle crisis situations in your teams when they fall on a weekend or public…
