We took our startup through Techstars in 2016. The next year they took a very similar company that ended up getting more funding and attention. We didn't understand it at first, but looking back it was definitely because they were the better team.

In the end, both teams failed to scale so it ended up being the wrong platform at the wrong time, but if one of them could have taken off then the bet they made would have paid off.
