Fall Reading: From New York Founders

We received so many great recommendations for our Summer Reading: From New York Founders that we decided to include them on our Fall Reading as well. Thank you again to all the founders who connected with us during our quarterly Office Hours and offered their reading lists for this post. We are thrilled to add these titles to our growing repository of reading for early-stage founders. For those who want to catch up on the series, check out these posts for more: The Early Stage Founder’s Reading List and Fall Reading: From our Founders and CEOs.
