Hi All,

We were accepted into the Berkeley Skydeck accelerator and we are trying to decide if we should join.

We just went through another accelerator which was great for perfecting our pitch and other general company setup but now I really want to dig down and build the product alongside our first hire. I have 2 main questions:

1. Is the program a distraction from building our product? 2. Is the venture network and demo day worth the time commitment and lower valuation investment ($100K at $2M valuation).

Any other feedback is appreciated as well.

Thanks
