"You are expected to tackle a $1 Billion opportunity and achieve hyper-growth (100% year-over-year or more)."

Aren't VC back start ups looking for way more than 100% growth per a year? I was under the impression the target is 10-20% growth per a month in revenue. In other words 100% growth is so low it would likely prevent you from staying on the VC back track.



If you can grow faster than by all means do! The 10-20% guidance you get in YC is not realistic as you get bigger, smart VCs are much more realistic about revenue growth (given it is recurring and you don't have to pay to acquire that revenue again each month).
