Recently, I led research at UpYouth on analyzing the batch data of Y Combinator in Southeast Asia from 2013 to 2023. This includes the analysis of 217 founders and 111 startups enlisted to YC in the region.
The facts were interesting: 60% founders went to elite universities; 70% founders have prior work experience in product development or growth; only less than 30% were first-time founders.
