Y Combinator (company)

Y Combinator is an American seed accelerator, started in March 2005. Forbes has found YC to be the most commercially successful seed accelerator in the world.〔http://www.forbes.com/sites/tomiogeron/2012/04/30/top-tech-incubators-as-ranked-by-forbes-y-combinator-tops-with-7-billion-in-value/〕 ''Wired'' has called Y Combinator a "boot camp for startups" and "the most prestigious program for budding digital entrepreneurs". Marc Andreessen has said "Y Combinator is the best program for creating top-end entrepreneurs that has ever existed.”〔https://www.ycombinator.com/〕
==Programs==
In its main program Y Combinator interviews and selects two batches of company per year. The companies, which must be based in Silicon Valley for the 3 month program, receive seed money, advice, and connections in exchange for 7% equity. The program includes "office hours", where startup founders meet individually and in groups with Y Combinator partners for advice. Founders also participate in weekly dinners where guests from the silicon valley ecosystem (successful entrepreneurs, venture capitalists etc) speak to the founders. The program aims to focus the founders on working intensively on further developing their product, team and market, refining their Business Model Canvas, achieving product/market fit, scaling the startup into a high growth business, etc. A key principle is that companies make products that people want.〔https://twitter.com/sama?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor〕 The program culminates at Demo Day where startups present their business to a selected audience of investors.
As of November 2014, 27 YC companies were worth over $100m.〔https://twitter.com/sama/status/535886478501376000〕
As of Winter 2015, Y Combinator had invested in ~940 companies including Dropbox, Airbnb, Coinbase, Stripe, Reddit, Zenefits, Machine Zone, Instacart and Weebly, and the combined market capitalization of YC companies was over $65B.
Some non-profit organisations also participate in the main YC program, and are not charged.〔http://www.ycombinator.com/nonprofits/〕
In 2015 YC introduced additional programs:
* In July 2015, Y Combinator introduced YC Fellowship Program, aimed at companies at an earlier stage than the main program, and planning for 1000 startups every year. The first batch of YC Fellowship includes 33 companies, which received an equity-free grant instead of an investment.
* In October 2015, Y Combinator introduced the YC Continuity Fund, aimed at companies at a later stage than the main program, which will allow YC to make pro rata investments for companies valued under $300 million. Companies with valuations above this level can receive support at the discretion of Y Combinator.
* In October 2015 YC introduced YC Research, to fund long-term (25 years is mentioned) fundamental research. YC President Sam Altman donated $10m.〔http://blog.ycombinator.com/yc-research〕
