Interesting. Please dont take this the wrong way, but my opinion of Scott is that he is terribly smart, but cant find anything to focus on for more than a year. So he continually starts companies, raises money based on his name, and then forgets them after a bit, and moves on. Perhaps this isnt fair/true, its just the impression that his history gives off.

Either way, good luck.




At this point I think he has something like 8 companies that he is founder of that he is hasn't sold. I can't argue with the terribly smart part but as I have had very minimal interaction with him I am reserving my opinion for a little farther down the line. Even if what you say is true it has been clear to me that he is willing to give a lot of responsibility to those who show promise so I am going to see what his companies may have to offer in Indiana. It is true that there are not enough hours in the day for him to focus completely on all the companies which is why I have not had much interaction with him yet. Do let me know though if you see any interesting startups in the area or want to bounce some ideas around.
