| The first panel of today’s Startup School event at the Flint Center for the Performance Arts had Paul Graham interviewing SV Angel’s Ron Conway. Given the audience — which based on some chatting before the event, consisted of many Stanford students and high schoolers in the South Bay Area — Graham’s line of question primarily had to do with the traits and skills needed to be a successful founder.
Conway began by stating that a good entrepreneur has to “have a huge work ethic, be ambitious, aggressive, tough.” He also said that being an entrepreneur is a vocation: “You can’t learn to be ambitious and driven.” |
