CEO of software crowd testing company, testIO, Phil Soffer. An early hacker in his teens and a Berkeley Ph.D. candidate in his 20s, Phil is one of the most charismatic and atypical CEOs that you will likely meet. He spent years working in the Valley and considers himself part of the rather undiscovered Plumtree Mafia (includes top execs at Redfin, Xoom, Atlassian, Zendesk and a number of VCs).

This summer while researching for SAP Nation 3.0, I have also been reading plenty about the young nation of the US in the 1800s. The comparisons to the enterprise vendor market, two centuries later, in the 2000s are striking. In.

A few weeks ago I wrote about the launch of the Looking Glass , a desktop holographic display made for 3D creators. Since then, over a thousand people have purchased a Looking Glass for their desks.

Navigating the market and exploring the startup landscape can be difficult, especially with today’s market condition and challenges.

When asked recently if I could describe the attribute that is most important to becoming a successful entrepreneur the word that came to mind was “resilience” I don’t hear it talked about much in the context of entrepreneurship, but I think it perfectly captures the combination of the ability to bounce back from the adversity, challenge and failure that goes hand in hand with being an entrepreneur while at the same time recognizing and learning from your mistakes.

My near-obsession with Bobby Kennedy is showing no signs of slowing, and fortunately, there seems to be no shortage of books about him these days (likely because he was assassinated 50 years ago.).
