SeedStart will offer promising teams the chance to build a technology
product and launch a company with the assistance of seed investment
capital, mentorship and other resources.  Companies will be selected
through a competitive application process and each company will
receive a $20,000 investment.  Throughout the summer, companies will
also receive mentorship from experienced New York City based venture
capitalists and entrepreneurs, legal and business guidance,
administrative help and technical assistance.  At the end of the
summer venture capitalists and angel investors will be invited to an
Investor Day where each team will present their product and launch
their company.  SeedStart will run for 8 weeks beginning in June of
2010.

SeedStart is a joint effort among Contour Venture Partners, IA
Ventures, NYC Seed, RRE Ventures and Polaris Venture Partners, and
also includes Fish & Richardson, Manatt, Phelps & Phillips and Silicon
Valley Bank.  The program has begun accepting applications and teams
of at least two founders can apply at
http://www.nycseed.com/seedstart.html by February 28, 2010 to be
considered.  For information, contact Owen Davis at owen@nycseed.com.

Hello, my name is Jason. Welcome to my blog on the interwebs. You can reach me on twitter @jason and by email at jason@calacanis.com. My Skype is jasoncalacanis, and my mobile phone is 310-456-4900.

I only pick up numbers I recognize, and in terms of emailing me, the best strategy is to write short, blunt and to the point requests. I can quickly respond to short messages, and many times I simply don't have the time to read five page pitches. In terms of taking meetings, I only do that after reviewing an actual product (not a business plan). So, the best time to ping me is when you have mockups or an alpha site. I don't read business plans, and I've never written one.
