Join me as I talk with David Brown from Techstars. David is a serial entrepreneur and helped found Techstars along with David Cohen, Brad Feld and Jared Polis in 2006. The Co-founders wanted to leverage what they had learned in their previous startups to help entrepreneurs avoid those same mistakes. Techstars' startup accelerator offers a three-month bootcamp and surrounds entrepreneurs with mentors to help you navigate everything from choosing the right product and testing it.

Today the accelerator runs 13 different programs across Boulder, New York and Boston among other locations. Nearly 500 companies have graduated from Techstars, 1,200 founders have been through the system, 1,200 mentors have participated and over 1,00 investors and hundreds of corporations have gotten involved.
