“Yet, the crazy startup has received a quite a response from social media and Estonian media.”

I wonder, do you mean, a quiet response, quite a response or … just quit?

Comment on Full Picture of the Estonian VC’s – who are these guys? by Kristjan

Naiste osas on nüüd olukord parem: Heidi Kakko AFst oli asutajate hulgas ja temale lisandus sel suvel Kadri Vunder LSVentures’ist.

Usutavasti on riskikapitalitööstuses naiselik mõõde tõusev trend.

BaltCapi ajalugu ulatub tõepoolest 1995. aastasse, mil alustati investeerimist Baltimaades. Juhtimisfirmal oli tol ajal küll teine nimi.

Kogusime just EstVCAs statistika liikmete portfellide kohta, kokkuvõte peaks varsti meie veebilehele ilmuma.

Tore, et huvi tunned.

Comment on Garage48 winner Defolio is making buzz – what is it? (VIDEO) by Kristiina

I’m glad that Defolio has decided to continue independently as the whole idea and execution are extremely exciting plus I’m sure the company gathers value very quickly. So hold on boys, you’re in for a fast ride

Comment on Emp.ly and Talentag make staffing more fun by Jüri Kaljundi

One addition: we have a total of 4 co-founders at Emply/Talentag, so it really is a team effort. In addition to those mentioned above, Veli is a kick-ass designer and frontend engineer (he did all those badges!) and Janek a great developer (we’ve been working with him on developing online recruitment and HR services for 10+ years). Either we’ll be located in Estonia, San Francisco or London, we do it all together as one single fantastic team.

The general business model is to solve a huge current problem for companies: finding great people. We’ve been doing that already since 1996 with services like CV-Online, which work great for some purposes, but can be improved and might work differently on US markets. Currently for Emply we charge fees for using the tool for posting the ads and adding rewards, but will be adding also success and performance fees, reselling targeted recruitment advertising and other methods. As for any startup: experiment and see what works.
