Excited to launch Atrium Academy to the startup community! If you guys have any questions I can answer them here. :)

"the free two-day program pairs new founders with seasoned entrepreneurs and VCs". How are you guys monetizing this?

From the article:

"Startups also were able to meet with Atrium’s lawyers for counseling and legal preparation specifically for the financing process. All attendees also receive discounted legal services if they choose to use Atrium as their law firm. Of course some may say that this is all just a lead generation tactic to get more companies using Atrium as their lawyer when they decide to raise a Series A."

For folks who have come into the Valley relatively recently and don't know who Justin is...

1. He co-founded Justin.tv which became Twitch.

2. He's eyeballs deep in YC experience and contacts.

3. He's just a damn good entrepreneur.

Please tell all of your startup friends to drop what they are doing, google his bio, and start peppering him with questions.

Ahh, read that part wrong. I was thinking lead generation for the VC's which was obvious.

Great question. Think of it like content marketing that is very heavy on content because that's the best way to market :) - Bebe, Atrium Co-Founder

Not related to Atrium, but is there any footage of you from when Justin.tv was a live stream of your life?

What do you think of all the irl streamers that are super popular now?
