The Panel That’s Definitely, Maybe Not About AngelGate
Today at our TechCrunch Disrupt conference in San Francisco, there was probably one panel above all others that everyone was waiting for: Super Angels To Super VCs. The reason, of course, is that last week the situation known as “AngelGate” broke out. It started with Mike walking into a closed-door meeting at a bar. And it ended with heated emails being published. We said Disrupt would not be about AngelGate, but naturally, it had to come up.
The panel consisted of: Ron Conway (SV Angel), Chris Sacca (Lowercase Capital), Dave McClure (500 Startups) — all of whom were right in the middle of AngelGate — and Roelof Botha (Sequoia), Chris Dixon (Founder Collective), Mark Suster (GRP Partners), and Yossi Vardi.
Below, find my live notes (paraphrased):
MA: You guys may have heard of AngelGate. I promised this wouldn’t be about it. But I have to ask…
DM: I’ve said everything I want to say about it on my blog.
CS: Ron made this industry possible. I think there was a misunderstanding. I wasn’t at the second dinner, so I hope no one fucked that up. But I was at the first, it wasn’t bad. I think this whole thing is a total waste of time.
RC: I think all the leaked emails cover it.
MA: So we’re not going to have a Jerry Springer moment.
CS: I don’t think you want that.
YV: I’m more concerned about this all getting nuclear.
