Start Up Risk Takers – Friedman in Today’s NYT
By Jon Callaghan, February 22, 2009
A wonderful piece in today’s New York Times article by Thomas Friedman (found here).
We strongly agree that innovation is the key to our country’s (and world’s future). At True we have resources and platform that can help, but we need the ecosystem revived.
We’d welcome your ideas as to how we can (all) foster a stronger Seed and Series A ecosystem to stimulate early stage investment and help talented entrepreneurs
Please tell us how we can help:
Does the stimulus help nurture existing startups? If so how and where should entrepreneurs go to access Washington? Can you help us get more entrepreneurs plugged in?
Are there new areas targeted in the bill that all of us should be focused on?
We’ll post all ideas here and simply want to foster the discussion and do our part to create entrepreneurial opportunity and growth.
