Editor's Notes Reporting often doesn't end in the same place where it begins. That was the case for a piece I published today (See below). What started as a look at how startups dole out equity turned out to center on another question altogether: ownership. In the end, it became clear that offering percentages and stock options has grown as a key piece of the equation for startup founders seeking early employees. But don't discount the learning and growth that can be offered along the way. —Stephen Babcock, Assistant Editor, Technical.ly (stephen@technical.ly) |
