Means you need people who can actually do shit. If you need people with business experience then a program that connects you with investors makes perfect sense. Investors need people like her. Thus the rejection was a mistake.

Neither did Google! That's why you partner with investors who have experience. Duh!
> or that she can think on her feet, for example.
Really bad example in this case.

A given?!? What is a "given" in a venture?!?
You're making the same mistake with "good bet" when you really mean "guarantee".
freax, I don't know you, but given your responses to this and that other thread, I would highly suggest that if you're looking to be successful, you should put some of that emotional response that you're directing towards me into positive action for your venture.
There are many people on this forum that will be there to help you in the future, but if you catch a name as a person who is a little to sharp to quip with pure emotion, they will have second thoughts.
It's not a big deal, and it's not personal - don't make it so.
run4yourlives - I agree with you. Everyone has a plan until they get into the ring. It is always best to preserve dry powder for the real fight. Being constructive and making allowance for other people's opinion go a long way in this business.
