Startup School is in session!

This past weekend, we brought Startup School back in person and the energy was incredible. Over 500 students and recent grads gathered at our office to network, learn about startups, and hear from speakers like Paul Graham, Sam Altman, Christina Caccioppo, and more. To quote YC Group Partner David Lieb, "The startup energy in SF sure feels more than back."
