Kevin Rose
In an on-the-couch-interview with author Sarah Lacy, Rose gave some advices for entrepreneurs. A small selection, collected by your Le Web 3 correspondent:

  • Don’t start raising funds too early. Make your concept perfect, then approach those angel funds and VC’s.
  • Pick partners that understand the business.
  • You don’t have to be a coder to start a project which you’re passionate about.

    of course it helps to be a coder :) He did mention hiring somebody. But I think he means that if you really want something, you shouldn’t give up only because you’re not a coder.
