In the past 20+ years, I have founded ten companies. The biggest lesson I learned is that you only have the chance to succeed with the right people. My rule number one of venture investment: I prefer to invest in a good team whose product may not be dazzling enough, rather than a bad guy who runs a seemingly great business. |
