[tweetthis]“Audience is now a new form of power, it’s investing power. So if you have an audience and you take a stance and people believe in what you believe in, you can just raise your hand and now you’re a VC, yourself. If a fund can raise money this way, why can’t a startup?” - Jordan [/tweetthis]
