Description

More attention should be given to bright young people.

Question: What are some big lessons from the start-up world?

I think the biggest thing that I've learned is that we should give more responsibility to youth, that the young people have great ideas and if they get caught in a funnel where they have to work their way up the path rather than being celebrated just based upon their ideas and what they're capable of — I would just love to surround myself with lots of bright young people and say, "ll give you the guidance I can but you run with your ideas, because they're probably better, fresher, take more advantage of some of the great technologies in the world," and that's what excites me.
