summary
Panel lists every funding route used: convertible notes, strategic corporate investment, AngelList and other AngelList crowdfunding, DARPA and government grants, and customer contracts, and reports that startups should try multiple channels.

Hard numbers: nearly all net new jobs come from companies five years old or younger and non‑VC firms fail more in the first four years.
