Haters gonna hate anyway. VCs spend tremendous resources, their knowledge, their IP to bolster newborn IT businessmen. They provide techies, sales, marketing with steady salaries while giving opportunities to high speed projects and products. Obviously every VC dreams about having unicorn start-ups but lets be realistic, if 10 out of 100 startups will survive for 1.5 years it's a success already. Fail fast and go further until you succeed, this is all about being agile. Rather than writing hate mail we’d better write articles how to make broken things work.
P.S.: on the wave of success of Lazada which got 1B and Rocket Internet that was evaluated this week for 7.2B it makes these blogs look like attention attractors.
