I know at least Spark and Lightspeed have incubators of sorts and that NEA at least does that sometimes.
I think the Sequoia thing has been a tempest in a teapot. It may have miffed some other firms, but I don't think that's affecting meetings we're getting and hasn't ever come up in talks.
Glad to hear. There are a ton of reasons why Sequoia might not invest in a company they have priority access to, many of which say nothing about the company. If I were an angel their lack of involvement wouldn't deter me.
On the other hand, I'm not an angel and probably don't think like most of them.
