Recruiting a Team, 1:13 hours

February 1, 2006
Moderator: Amy Love, Forum for Women Entrepreneurs & Executives. Panelists: Matt Glickman, Merced Systems; Howard Hartenbaum, Draper Richards; April King, Howard Fischer Associates; Thomas Layton, OpenTable; Nick Sturiale, Sevin Rosen Funds.
New ventures live or die by the strength of their management teams. In addition, the strength of the founding team often proves to be a key factor in attracting capital from angel investors or venture capitalists. How can an entrepreneur bring together the 'right' founding team to guide a fledgling company? What role do board members, venture capitalists and other advisors play in selecting additional members of the management team? In this panel, entrepreneurs, executive recruiters and venture capitalists share their experiences and recommendations on building successful management teams.
