Investor

If you're an entrepreneur or corporate innovator, why?

Like the challenge of starting or investing in something new.

My favorite startups:

Google, Linkedin

What's most frustrating and rewarding about entrepreneurship/innovation?

That it takes so much time to raise money which then takes time away from growing sales.
It is so rewarding to see your vision come to life and for people to "buy" it!

What's the No. 1 mistake entrepreneurs/innovators make?

Don't factor in enough time and money needed to reach goals.

What are the top three lessons you've learned as an entrepreneur?

You are always selling.
Never give up if you really believe in your idea and yourself.
You cannot grow a business by sitting around. You have to get out an connect with clients, customers, investors......
