In advance of his talk we are sharing a great interview of Hiten posted yesterday on TechCrunch, where he discusses his experience starting both bootstrapped and venture-backed companies, the "misconception" many founders have about their prospects for raising money, and the current trends he is seeing across the startup and venture capital scene.
Hiten is the CEO of KISSmetrics, where he is building a data driven solution to help online businesses make better business decisions (Tip: if you are looking to easily track and analyze your conversion funnel, be sure to check it out).
