“If you dropped me off a space platform onto the ground where a line was drawn, I would fall to the left side of it.

And I think on the left - though they blend and mix - on the left primarily you will find people who are more concerned about humans, and the human condition, and what can be done.”

Then venture capital becomes true creative capital - creating growth for the company and financial success for the investing organization”
