An Almost Acquisition Story

&gt;&quot;today we are still 100% Astronomer and in no way a part of Romeo’s portfolio. Without going into too much detail, a week after returning from SoCal, the deal was dead.&quot;<p>Why write everything before this and then leave the reader hanging at the end? For shame.

This was a fun read, if a little lacking in detail (understandably).<p>I&#x27;m curious what they mean by saying AngelPad is the &quot;top ranked accelerator in the world&quot;. I&#x27;ve heard similar things about both YC and Techstars, although it seems everyone knows that YC is <i>the</i> premier startup launching program, if only in legacy. Who makes these rankings anyway?

Nice read. This part cracked me up: &#x27;Interestingly, our CTO, Greg, had a different take: “There’s no way this happens.”&#x27;

The incredible journey continues.

Great article and a great reminder to keep your head straight.

really cool article!
