The funniest thing is that now I know what reverse spam is. You know you get spam from people saying, ‘Can you invest in this or that?’ People are now e-mailing me saying, ‘Oh my God, can I invest in your company?’ It’s a reverse solicitation of money.

Showing all quotes-
I want to create an environment where I can create technology, get it into the hands of someone to market it, and move on to other technologies so I can keep innovating. I want to be a serial entrepreneur: Incubate an idea, get it to a good state, and make that an enabler to get to the next state. It’s every researcher’s fantasy.
