Q:There are so many options now for fledgling startups now for seed investment and advice - YCombinators, Tech Stars, 500 Startups, etc. Should one pursue them all? Is one better than the rest? Does geography of where one is matter? Thanks in advance for your thoughts...

It’s not a popular answer, but I don’t think geography matters these days. Pick the location where you will be happy. 

We have invested in startups coming out of TechStars and YC. Both are excellent programs for first time founders. I have less experience with 500Startups but have a lot of respect for Dave.
