Entrepreneurs make the world a better place, and technology is the great enabler. Skillful, imaginative founders leverage technology to disrupt old industries, dream into existence capabilities which never existed. In the process, making our lives more fun, more safe, more convenient and more rewarding. This is the big quest entrepreneurs embark on. And I am grateful for the opportunity to assist, by mentoring, tough-loving, and presenting mine and Battery's collective experience, network and resources.
