Helping Entrepreneurs Succeed: Sergey Brin and Larry Page

by Scott Edward Walker on July 19th, 2010

To Our Clients & Friends:  Welcome to our weekly series entitled “Helping Entrepreneurs Succeed.”  Each week, we post a short video presentation or interview of a successful entrepreneur, investor or business leader on a variety of topics to help entrepreneurs succeed.

Today we present Sergey Brin and Larry Page, the co-founders of Google and brilliant entrepreneurs, from a 2001 interview with Charlie Rose.  In this interesting, 14-minute clip, Sergey and Larry discuss, among other things, (i) the history of Google, (ii) their search for money, (iii) their business model, (iv) their relationship (and why they disliked each other) and (v) the rationale for bringing on Eric Schmidt as CEO.  I hope you enjoy it.  Thanks, Scott

Helping Entrepreneurs Succeed: Larry Page

by Scott Edward Walker on June 29th, 2010

To Our Clients & Friends:  Welcome to our weekly series entitled “Helping Entrepreneurs Succeed.”  Each week, we post a short video presentation or interview of a successful entrepreneur, investor or business leader on a variety of topics to help entrepreneurs succeed.

Today, as a bonus to yesterday’s presentation by Keith Rabois, we have Larry Page, co-founder of Google and a brilliant entrepreneur, from a 2002 presentation at Stanford (courtesy of Stanford University’s Entrepreneurship Corner).  In this interesting, 4-minute excerpt, Larry discusses, among other things, the importance of (i) having great people involved with your venture; (ii) becoming an “expert” in your space/domain; (iii) having a “healthy disregard for the impossible”; and (iv) not starting a company because the space is “hot.”  I hope you enjoy it.  Thanks, Scott
