					<description><![CDATA[Just found this post, it&#039;s a bit awkward replying two years after it was published, but better late than never :) Our start up is very early stage, I met with a few VCs and this post gave me a very clear perspective on things (also reinforced some feelings I thought were weird). Thank you!]]></description>
