Founders

Let's do a scholarship program for Farcon to help some people get to NYC.

Year 2 of the Farcon Scholarship Program

DC me if interested.

1. $100.00 for pitchdeck review +  live pitch feedback. 

2. Max 5.

3. 100% ($500) goes to Farcon Scholarships stewarded by /purple, the OG Farcaster community DAO.

Building something new. Host: /venturecapital /adventures /theitinerant

I love the idea of sponsoring trips to Farcon, but I would *never* pay anyone for pitch deck feedback or pitch review.

IMO that’s something that should be done out of good faith, or not at all.

Personally disagree with this and think that @benersing offered in good faith, also remember the last time he offered to do this and it was well received

I put up a service on Bountycaster when we launch services to review pitch decks and pitch sessions for $50 with all funds going to sponsoring trips to FarCon. Was not investing at the time and ended up raising quite a bit for sponsoring people (otherwise I wouldn't have had time to meet with dozens of founders in a week to do this while running Bountycaster)

If it's a market people want to pay for, helps founders, and the funds go to a good cause, I don't really see anything wrong with it since everyone's time is valuable (e.g. intro.co built entirely around this concept)

Appreciate the pushback :)

I also find it weird when VCs use Intro, but to each their own!
