The Cambridge sticker wall, 8 years later
Over the holidays, I was scrolling through old photos, and I came across this from December 2013. It's the last photo I took on the final day at the Techstars Boston office in Cambridge before it moved to Boston.

This was the first wall you saw when you entered the office, so it was a perfect place for startup stickers. Twelve companies are represented here, so I dug into Crunchbase to see how we all fared.
