That's a very open ended question which is hard to answer. Do you have a more specific question? My company (Tapster Robotics) was part of the first Inde.vc "batch" of 8 companies. We were the guinea pigs as we figured out what worked and didn't. But I liked that we didn't have to move (I'm in Chicago), though we did meet up once a quarter in different cities to catch-up for a few days. With no demo day (and no expectation to raise another round) all our discussions revolved around building the business, not grooming ourselves for the perfect investor pitch. My previous startup followed the "traditional" Silicon Valley model of being in forever-VC-pitching mode. This time around, I'm happy to be off that treadmill.
