How much value does a successful software startup create per dollar of venture investment? About 10x, though it’s volatile. Let’s call the value generated per venture dollar the MOIC (multiple on invested capital). MOIC = value_at_exit / total_VC_dollars_raised. Over the last 30 years, a venture dollar invested in a successful US software startup generated $10 of value.

Remember the five “W’s?”. In my early journalism classes, I was taught the five “W’s” of good news stories, and that most should be in the first paragraph at that. Who, what, when, where and why are the five, with sometimes a “how” thrown in for those followers of the macabre. Which of the five is most important for you? But of the five, “why” is by far the most important for business leaders to consider and communicate.

Fortunately They’re Really Simple To Fix! You might think my job is about saying “yes” to founders, but statistically it’s *actually* about saying “no,” given we typically see 3,000+ companies annually in order to make 10–12 investments. Despite the volume, each opportunity to hear or read more about someone’s idea is a privilege and I try to treat it respectfully, despite not being able to spend meaningful time on the majority of inbound we receive.

YC's job board now lets job seekers filter by equity offered on the job description. Over 380 startups have posted roles with equity, with some early engineering roles offering 2%. At YC, we tell our founders to be generous with equity, and even suggest giving 10% to the first 10 employees. Early employees are taking a bigger risk by working at an early stage startup, and their upside should be significantly greater than employees at later stage or public companies.
