I seem to encounter a lot of people who want to attach a CTO label to me as I'm the only programmer on the founding team of three. While I do fill that role at the moment, I'm a little hesitant to refer to myself as a CTO as we still haven't launched a product, acquired a single user, or turned or a penny in profit. Accounting?

By the end of my sophomore year, I decided to go after this full time, and that's when I officially brought on a CTO, Shiv Prakash, and we went at it in the summer of 2011, and the rest is kind of history. Both have been great mentors ever since. We understand this whole effort was actually backed by Sir Richard Branson?

HV: The I-Corps mentors are very experienced entrepreneurs and they will just tell you straight up what they think of your results. Basically every conversation you have is either validating or invalidating your hypothesis. We had to talk to at least 100 customers throughout. It was really fast.
