> Ignore Venture Capital

I have trouble seeing how this works in a robotics or biotech company. Yes, if you're building something facing consumers on the web you can go a long way on small savings and people just putting time in. But if you want to build something that requires some capital simply to keep the business running that's going to be difficult.



As stated:

> If it takes a lot of money to create what your customers want

I assume that covers what you are talking about...


Only in a perfect world that would work that would ring true. For some reason people think robotics is cheap and easy, true with VCs.


The rest of that sentence is: “then the VCs will want to talk to you anyways.”

Which is only a little bit true.
