The Startup Investor
Dear Startup Investor,

Neil here.

When the coronavirus first started impacting the public markets, we spent some time talking about how those effects could trickle down to startups and their angel investors.

But it's important to avoid letting worst-case scenarios rule our lives. After all, some of the biggest companies around today - Uber, Slack, Airbnb, Salesforce, and Groupon, to name a few - were founded during the Great Recession of 2008.

Even before that, the recession of the early 1980s springboarded giants like Adobe, Dell, and AOL.

Maybe that's because founders who take the leap to launch a business during a recession have the courage and grit it takes to succeed.

Or maybe tough times just teach companies to get tougher.

Either way, there's no denying the historical data. And someday, I think we'll look back at this crisis and see a new generation of startups that became titans.

So let's start looking to the future. Below, you'll find links to stories that will teach you how to stay above water in these uncertain times - and some that look beyond today's crisis to the brighter days ahead.

We'll talk soon.

Until next time,


Neil Patel
