Hello, content creators. Silicon Valley’s investors want to meet you

Last summer, Tucker Schreiber, a 28-year-old co-founder of a startup called Combo that was building a video editing platform, noticed a lot more emails in his inbox. Though his company had no employees and no products, and hadn’t even said it was looking for money, investors were sending him a stream of messages.

“I started getting five to 10 inbound emails daily for a couple weeks straight from investors,” he said.
