Mercury Launchpad just launched here in Memphis a couple weeks ago. They aim to make it a little easier for micro-startups to get going.
They are a venture of Mercury Tech Labs. I was invited to their launch party and wrote a little about it on my personal blog. It was enjoyable to meet some other local […]

Guy Kawasaki and I sat down last month to discuss if a startup outside of silicon valley can get funding from the sought after Sand Hill Road? Guy’s perspective stems from a career in the valley and funding startups. See more video interviews with Guy here.

Startup Lessons from the Valley (Sonoma)

Friday, July 6th, 2007

So You Want to Be An Entrepreneur

Wednesday, June 20th, 2007

I think most people tend to have a misconceived belief that starting a business is a glamorous pursuit. You can call the shots, do what you want with your time, answer only to yourself, create your own corporate culture, make loads of money, yadda, yadda, yadda. Because it is unpopular to go against […]
