We hope to change how people relate to their governments and social institutions. Over time, we expect governments will become more responsive to issues and concerns raised directly by all their people rather than through intermediaries controlled by a select few. We expect this trend to grow as well. They cannot be ignored.

It’s time to ask why startup board governance has failed to keep pace with innovation. This approach offers VC’s and Angels a semi-formal framework for measuring progress and offering their guidance in the “search”?

Their job is not a purely governance one, cuz there's just not a lot of governance stuff that needs to happen at the very early stages. Whether even if they're informal, you know, you're gonna wanna be in a position where you can grant equity, uh, to board members for service. So, but you know, it's very variable.

For cash starved startups, having management and employees believing in the opportunity and team and being motivated by equity is key to success.

Government grants – Credit cards / debt. Ideally you can pay them based + equity so that you’ll get their attention and focus on the project. I’ve developed a very simple work processing framework.
