Yeah, this is truly little tech, you know. When we talk about little tech, this is it. I think the average team is two to three people. They are running their companies not in their office, not in a co-working space. They're running it at the kitchen table.

对，这就是真正的 little tech。我们谈 little tech 时，说的就是这个。平均团队两到三个人。他们不在办公室、不在联合办公空间运营公司，而是在厨房餐桌上运营。

For us, one of the really magical things, something that I take a lot of just personal pride and excitement in, is the idea that we are not just waiting for entrepreneurs to show up at our doorstep at A16Z. But we're actually helping create the companies in the first place.

对我们来说，一件真正神奇的事，也是我个人非常自豪和兴奋的，是我们不只是在 a16z 等着创业者出现在门口，而是实际上在帮着把公司创造出来。

Then you'll have another, you know, if that's if that's like five and 10 companies, you'll have another, you know, two or three where you make a little money and then all all all the money is made in that. kind of top decile, you know, the one out of 10 that really where you get the grand slam.

然后，如果那是五到十家公司，你会有另外两三家能赚一点钱，而所有的钱都赚在头部十分之一那家——十分之一里打出全垒打的那家。

They don't, like, these guys, like, don't have, you know, they don't have lobbyists. They don't have, you know, they're not involved in the political process. They're not really represented in all these ways because, frankly, they just don't have time.

这些人没有游说者。他们不参与政治过程。他们在这些方面没有被真正代表，因为坦白说，他们就是没时间。

Well, and and and their timeline, a startup, a two person startups timeline, not only is it not a year, like you may not know if you have a company in a year. Right. It may not even be six months. It may not even be three months.

而且他们的时间表，一个两人的创业公司的时间表，不只是不到一年——你可能一年都不知道自己有没有一家公司。可能连六个月都不到。可能连三个月都不到。

I think I think there's some interesting stats about how nearly 50 percent of venture backed startups are first generation immigrants, for example, you know, people who who relocate in order to do it.

我记得有一些有意思的统计，比如接近 50% 的风投支持的创业公司是第一代移民，也就是为了创业而搬迁的人。

I think the first is to just have them understand that it's a choice whether or not each state or each city wants to have startups or not. If you want to have startups, you have to do things to make it conducive to having startups.

第一点是让他们明白，每个州或每个城市要不要有创业公司，是一个选择。如果你想要有创业公司，你就得做一些让创业公司能生长的事。
