Is Y Combinator biased towards young founders?

7 pointsby jsanromanabout 11 years ago
A recent post by HBR addressed the biased towards young founders in the SV but according to their "quick and dirty" research: 22% of billion USD SV founders were 20-24 at age of founding. 19% 25-29; 22% 30-34, 35% older than 35 2% younger than 20

The better (and more accurate) correlation to examine is: are young founders biased towards YC? I am willing to bet that the majority of applications to YC are from young founders. This is reflected in the people who get accepted.<p>Not to mention I&#x27;m surprised you thought you&#x27;d ever be able to get a clear answer to such a loaded question on HN.
