Accelerated - An update!
Hello! It’s been a while since we’ve come at you with a new edition of Accelerated, and we have some news. As you may have noticed, there’s a lot going on in the world of early stage tech and startups right now. 👀 This has made it difficult to keep up with putting Accelerated together every weekend to the standard we’d like. After a lot of discussion and reflection, we decided that instead of producing a lower quality product, we’d rather put the newsletter on temporary hiatus. Accelerated has been a hugely important and fulfilling part of our lives and careers, so we’re hoping to come back if / when things calm down a bit. We could not be more grateful for the support of the Accelerated community over the past six years, and are excited to keep in touch with you all. We’ll still be sharing new VC career opportunities at @vcrecruiting - and you can also keep up with everything going on with us @venturetwins and @omooretweets. We hope to see you very soon - in the meantime, feel free to DM us on Twitter or shoot us an email (jmoore and omoore @ a16z.com) with any questions! 👋
