3/ The lack of VC money makes self-deception much harder. MicroConfers are strikingly rigorous, honest, and actively truth-seeking.

4/ Check out
@patio11's tweeting from the last few days for some good talk excerpts. -
5/ Talks aren't fluffy inspiration or burnished success stories. Instead, pricing models, funnel optimization, challenges of failure.
-
6/ I walked away with many pages of Stripe feedback and suggestions. (Thanks, all!)
-
7/ And thanks to
@SingleFounder and@robwalling for putting on a great event. - 1 more reply

@patrickc Sounds great! But looking at pic-where were women? Getting women entrepreneurs into#STEM still a big challenge!@GoingForGrowth -
@clare_duignan There were at least two great talks from women. (Maybe more, I didn't see every one.) But yes. I wish it was more balanced :( -
@patrickc Guess that's why schemes like@CoderDojo are so important. Get them young.... -
@patrickc@CoderDojo This short clip says it all-go girls! (and boys). Hope for the future! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WdcdnQRRTw …

@patrickc Was great seeing you here Patrick. Timing couldn't be better, we're in the process of ditching PayPal and using solely Stripe. -
@DannyvanKooten welcome aboard! Would love to hear any feedback along the way.
