Here's the story of how I got into Y Combinator (YC) with a 4 day old idea, whilst still at university.

DISCLAIMER: My experiences are offered independently of, and not sponsored or endorsed by, or affiliated with, Y Combinator.

Here is the book I mention - Disciplined Entrepreneurship: https://www.d-eship.com/. It’s essentially a 24-step guide on how to build a startup from the ground up, and was really helpful to our team early on.

We are so grateful to the team at YC, and all those who have helped us along the way. The YC interview was a fantastic learning experience, and I’m excited to share it with you in this video! If you’re interested in seeing our YC application, getting more information on the interview, or hearing my tips on how to prepare, feel free to comment that down below.

From physics, to finance, to entrepreneurship - join me on my latest startup adventures. On this channel, I'll be sharing more about our progress, my background, the Haut team, some of the crazy stories, and inviting special guests. Subscribe to keep up to date with all things Haut!
