Techcrunh released the news today here and the Twittersphere has RT the message at least hundred times.

What is the big deal?

Sequoia is the most famous VC firm on earth and Y Combinator has proved his model to be a successful one….why everyone is so surprised about it?I guess a lot of VC firms will join the bandwagon and i will not not be surprised to see TechStars annoucing the same kind of deal very soon.

Seedcamp wich is developing a quite similar model in Europe has been funding at start with 3 millions Euros by about 10 VCs to access  “premium dealflow” and “investment opportunity”.

I guess more and more entrepreneurs will play the angel as less money needs to be poured into companies these days and sweat equity is by far the key for a new entrepreneur.

Jean David Chamboredon from 3i has talked about this new model saying “successful entrepreneurs will be business angels of tomorrow”

We can interprete that Sequoia investment as a new trend for VC to outsource the early stage stage of development to small dedicated teams and focus on big deals only.

If Y Combinator has a great PR, it is not the case for all other small angel teams doing the same job and having difficulties to access a great audience. This is why we created CapitalBooster, we understood that new trend and wanted to be part of it.

If you are a Y Combinator copycat (i wish you are) and want to present yourself, feel free to contact us. We will be pleased to present your team and structure.
