This is from May 2011, but I found it to still be a great resource.


Giving statistics on n = 6 is not very useful.

It's a sufficiently small sample that a table would be a better way to present the data.


Presumably the sample size is the aggregated number of companies these VCs invested in. Sure, the numbers are averaged together but I find it interesting that the variance is relatively low. I think these numbers are still pretty useful for entrepreneurs. If nothing else, they give you an idea of what to put on the projections you send to VCs. :)


This is all fine and well.

But he got six (6) responses.

Just give us the raw responses, it's not as though our browsers will crash from parsing so many <td> elements.
