I have shared a claim about what Y Combinator teaches and an opinion about how launching an MVP can provide proof of concept. These are brief observations, not a detailed account of a curriculum or a particular startup experiment.
On January 24, 2025, I said, “This is what they teach you at Y Combinator,” and stated that YC has funded 90+ billion dollar companies. I did not identify which companies count or explain the linked page, https://t.co/w9BCIrvK37.
On January 24, 2025, replying to @pr_zapp, I said that launching an MVP can provide proof of concept, in my opinion. I did not specify what the MVP would demonstrate or how to assess that proof; this connects to my lean startup methodology approach.
