Notable Events: The Road from Employee to Founder
Tomorrow, there will be an event organized by Monte Jade that features a panel discussing the transition from an employee to a founder. This is especially relevant in the current fertile climate of Web 2.0 companies. Many times, the founders of these companies have made the jump, or are thinking about making the jump, from their day job to a potentially risky job as CEO.
The panelists include some founders who have successfully made this transition:
- Tom Cole - Partner at Trinity Ventures
- Dave Lu - Founder of FanPop
- Charles Ying - Founder of Mobile80
This event should be especially interesting to people who are curious to see the trials, tribulations, and delight in heading off on your own as a business trailblazer.
