True is a Quarterly Contributor!
By Phil Black, November 30, 2012
Back in August, we welcomed Quarterly.Co to True Ventures. We loved the idea of a “subscription service for wonderful things,” carefully curated by artists, writers, thinkers and other interesting people.
And then we had an idea: what if there was a Quarterly package dedicated to entrepreneurs? What if, every three months, the Founders and aspiring Founders of the world could receive wisdom from the front lines of innovation, along with inspirational gifts and goodies to help them along on their journey?
Thus, True Ventures became a Quarterly contributor.*
If you spend any time at all on this blog, you know that our mission at True Ventures is to make the world a better place for entrepreneurs. We believe in Founders of movements and products that capture our imagination. Our quarterly package will honor entrepreneurism, sharing the knowledge, ideas and objects that we believe will help Founders and aspiring Founders find inspiration to start a movement; to develop a simple, beautiful, imagination-capturing product; to achieve the ultimate expression of belief in oneself.
Our packages are a collaborative effort among our seven investing partners: Puneet Agarwal, Phil Black, John Burke, Jon Callaghan, Tony Conrad, Om Malik and Toni Schneider. Entrepreneurs ourselves, the True team has founded 14 startups, and three of our partners are active Founders or CEOs (Automattic, about.me, GigaOM). So we have a lot to say.
We hope you are as excited about this project as we are. One of our core beliefs is being an active member of the community, and this is just one small way we are engaging. We invite you to visit our contributor page and, if you feel inspired by what lies in store, sign up for a subscription. We have so much we can’t wait to share with you.
