*Became reacclimatized with the project, spoke with Ed about the direction for the rest of the semester

*Began examining the data on pulled webpages relating to demo days
1/26/18 13:00 - 17:00
*Began categorizing demo day pages based on: 1) relevance to accelerators, 2) relevance to the particular accelerator (got to 200)
1/30/18 15:00 - 17:00
*Continued working through the demo day pages, spoke with Ed about using the data to work a better set (got to 450)
2/01/18 15:00 - 17:00
*Finished the match and created pivot tables to count the number of repetitions (companies going through more than one accelerator)
2/06/18 15:00 - 17:00
*Discussed with Matthew the best way to collect the VC data from the repetitions. We tried different matches through our SDC data to no avail
2/08/18 15:00 - 18:00
*Continued attempting to match with SDC the different columns. Didn't work without separating the data into individual files, a very tedious process.
2/13/18 15:00 - 17:00
*Spoke with Ed about incubators project, will begin as soon as we can time the accelerator startup investments. Ed is expecting us to begin sometime in the next two months, using a similar process as we did for incubators. The process should be handled by a new worker.
2/15/18 15:00 - 17:00
*Talked to Ed about next steps for the project. Practiced accessing the CrunchBase database on SQL and brushed up on SQL code.
2/16/18 13:00 - 17:00
*Sifted through the database for Crunchbase investment information.
2/20/18 15:00 - 17:00
*Pulled the funding rounds table from SQL and matched it with the companies that have received VC funding in order to gather round dates.
2/22/18 15:00 - 18:00
*Went through the matched data. Brainstormed ways to get the dates for cohort companies going through accelerators.
2/27/18 15:00 - 17:00
*Looked into using the WhoIs Parser in order to find when the companies went through their accelerators.
