Something Ventured is a great ride through the 50's, 60's, and 70's of venture capital and entrepreneurship. Its the techcrunch and pandodaily of our time because it eloquently frames the businesses and deals in a format comparable to current companies. You can tell that money and value grows in the same pace as memory grows in technology. it doubles every 18 months. if one company is worth 50million today, the next biggest company will be double.
ok maybe thats a stretch. but you can tell that powerpoint was the instagram or siri of our time. being purchased and swallowed into huge companies to become giant parts of the business.
there are always businesses that have had bullshit ideas that pivoted and created a valuable business. There are also genius ideas that truly satisfy a huge need and reduce friction for current lifestyles.
Basically, its a great documentary for anyone that reads techcrunch/venturebeat/pandodaily/mashable/AOL(jk)...
