YoungTech Panel: Behind the (YC) Curtain
Please join us for an incredibly exciting event as we take an exclusive look inside Y Combinator — the most prestigious startup accelerator in the world.
We'll hear from 3 YC alumni as they discuss what it takes to get past a ~1% acceptance rate, what you get out of the program, and whether or not its really worth it.
Vaibhav Gupta, Co-Founder of Boundary (W23)
Emily Choi-Greene, Co-Founder of Clearly AI (S24)
Stephen Grabowski, Co-Founder of Gordian Software (W19)
