Editor's note

My favorite quote from this week's top story came from Peyton Worley, "When choosing a VC, it's not just about what check they're writing you. It's about that relationship and what are they bringing to the table; how do they help your business. Part of that is their presence on the board and what they can assist with there."

Startups: Demystifying the board of directors

The board of directors for a startup is serious stuff, but it is sometimes misunderstood. Getting your board right isn't very complicated, but its implications are critical.
