European Entrepreneurs Visit Sun
Today I joined a group of European entrepreneurs on their visit to Sun, hosted by the Sun Startup Essentials program.
We were treated with a one hour Q&A session with Scott McNealy, chairman of Sun. He was very engaged, passionate and very willing to give advice, answer straight questions and address difficult issues. I believe all the entrepeneurs in the room appreciated the opportunity.
We also had a very informative meeting regarding a hot topic for us, entrepreneurs: how big companies do M&A. Or more directly, “what it takes to be acquired by Sun”.
Sun Black Box
We then took a tour of Sun’s technologies. As usual, the black box was the most popular item. We often hear of Google shipping containers full of servers. At Sun, we got to see one up close and personal.
I can only applaud when European entrepreneurs are exposed to Silicon Valley. That’s where the passion for startups is the most contagious and that’s the kind of virus I love to spread!
