Helping Entrepreneurs Succeed: Ev Williams

by Scott Edward Walker on July 11th, 2012

To Our Clients & Friends: Welcome to our weekly series “Helping Entrepreneurs Succeed.”  Each week, we post a favorite video of a successful entrepreneur, investor or business leader on a variety of topics.  This week, we present Ev Williams, co-founder of Twitter and a brilliant entrepreneur.

In this interesting, four-minute clip from 2008, Ev discusses the history of Twitter and shares some solid nuggets for entrepreneurs, including the importance of (i) iterating, (ii) building something that’s fun and (iii) simplicity.  I hope you enjoy it.  Thanks, Scott
