At the Churchill Club last night, Garage Technology Ventures Managing Director Bill Reichert led a discussion with a panel of notable startup veterans: Kamran Elahian, Steve Kirsch, Dan'l Lewin and Heidi Roizen.
Here are a few highlights of the interview, which is available as both an MP3 download and as podcast that you can have downloaded to your system and/or MP3 player automatically (see ZDNet's podcasts: How to tune in).
I resonate with this comment from Karam Elahian, especially the point about humor:
A startup is not picnic. Any time you go to b-school, you see those beautiful hockey sticks...all of that is nonsense.
Life in a startup is full of ups and downs; if you accept that at the beginning, you manage everything based on that.
Make sure always to bring a lot of people with a fantastic sense of humor.
