Lecture Description

Launching a start-up is not a rational act.  And Vinod Khosla, a partner in Kleiner, Perkins, Caufield & Byers and former Sun Microsystems CEO, believes that success only comes from those who are foolish enough to think unreasonably.  Entrepreneurs need to stretch themselves beyond convention and constraint to reach something extraordinary.
