On March 25th we had a funny, inspiring event at Cooley Godward in Palo Alto with a cool panel of entrepreneurs who are making their mark on Silicon Valley and the rest of the world. We are waiting for the video and will upload it next week. 

 

Some statements from the panel:

 

Loic (Seesmic) when asked about his tag line: “My motto is to suck less every day.”

Soujanya (Cooliris): “Ideas without execution are hallucinations.”

Loic on what turns him on (question from Bernard Pivot): “Doing things when people think you’ll fail.”

Hubert Nguyen (Ubergizmo) on what he wants God to say when he arrives at the gates of heaven (question taken from Bernard Pivot): “We’ve got wifi !”
