Sarah Lacy Talks about the State of Silicon Valley

 

Sarah Lacy is a busy lady. She co-hosts the Web video show Yahoo! Tech Ticker, writes and edits for TechCrunch and is a columnist for BusinessWeek. As if that wasn’t enough, she has written a book: Once You’re Lucky, Twice You’re Good which is about the rise of Web 2.0 and is now working on her second book which will be about global entrepreneurship. How she finds the time for all this is beyond me, but we’ve been very lucky to have her in Israel for the past week-and-a-half and she has been a constant presence at events like Garage Geeks and Kinernet. She has also been quite candid about her thoughts on the condition of the venture capital/ start-up ecosystem in Israel.

Last week at the Innovation Luncheon we had Sarah to ourselves and she graciously gave us a short talk about the current state of state of affairs in Silicon Valley and the wider tech industry. As promised here is the video of Sarah’s talk:
