About Charles Jo

founder, StartupStudyGroup

More diversity please, 301 members on SSG; 226 on Slack

Hi everyone,

It’s a great milestone and we expect to continue to grow. I encourage you to continue to keep diversity in mind for our future members. Not only because I personally believe it is the fair and good thing to do, but I hope you are all planning to go global with your products and services so it makes plain business sense to build out our community with founders and investors from all regions and backgrounds. It could be anyone who feels locked out of the current startup ecosystem.

Please ask founders and investors to request invites at http://startupstudygroup.com/slack/

or they can email me directly at charlesjo@me.com.

Thank you in advance.

Have a great week!

Thank you in advance.

Ssg notes 3/25/14

Ssg notes 3/25/14

bit.ly/ssg-daily is our daily newsletter and I’m thinking that as our group is now 274 with 204 on Slack, it would be nice if members jotted down some notes from our daily Slack discussions.

JD is planning our 2nd virtual pitch event for 4/2. Please contact him directly on Slack @jd or @jdcarlu on Twitter for more info.

More Confidence!

More Confidence!

Instead of the ssg daily today, I am going to update an earlier post on our ssg slack:

The best thing we can help nurture at ssg is confidence. We now have 260+ members ranging from Oxford, Harvard, and creators of Wikipedia and MacRumors.com. And Wall St. types. We’ll continue to add. Never give up. Keep at it. Let’s succeed together!

And read and engage with our startup bloggers at http://ssg.space

Go go go!
