Silicon Valley Pioneer Sandra Kurtzig Back In Start-Up Game With Kenandy - Venture Capital Dispatch. Start-Up: the book » Silicon Valley and Europe. This is a short text I wrote in 2012, and my friend Will from Finland had made comments about it which I added. Thanks! I read it again this morning and thought it might be worth publishing it now… Intel, Apple, Microsoft, Oracle, Genentech, Cisco, Google, Facebook, Skype. You probably know these companies. Innovation is a culture where trial-and-error and uncertainty have huge roles. Bob Noyce was a model and a mentor for Steve Jobs. In this unique place, Silicon Valley, thousands of entrepreneurs try each year.
Europe is not fully unconscious of the problem. One concrete area to focus on is creating an infrastructure where risk-taking investors can thrive. Failure will always be part of innovation. Women Gain Ground at U.S. Start-Ups. Marylene Delbourg-Delphis. Twitter: @mddelphis I am a serial entrepreneur and CEO with over 20 years of experience in consumer and enterprise software, online services, and social media. I was one of the first European women to start a high tech company in Silicon Valley (ACIUS/4th Dimension, co-founded with Guy Kawasaki), and bootstrapped revenues to over $45M in six years.
I was also the CEO of Exemplary, a supply chain management software company (acquired by Persistent Systems) and of Brixlogic, an XML real-time transaction middleware software company (acquired by Diebold). As a CEO, shadow CEO, M&A facilitator, strategy consultant, strategy advisor, or board member (for about 30 technology companies so far, including Atomz, acquired by Omniture/Adobe and ObjectiveMarketer, acquired by EmailVision), I streamline the company’s story, re-energize teams, break down bottlenecks, restore cohesion and enthusiasm, and build a productive consensus between technical and sales & marketing teams.
