Yoav Leitersdorf (YL VENTURES)

This post I would like to dedicate to a great conference which I had the privilege of attending this afternoon at the Faculty of Economics and Business of Zaragoza University, and more precisely, as part of Cátedra Emprender . It was really worthwhile to attend. The speaker, Yoav Leitersdorf , is a natural-born entrepreneur, that was clear throughout his speech, but without a doubt what caught my attention (among many others things) is the form in which he evaluates the management and advanced technology innovation projects in the business world.  In the phrase that I emphasize below lies the philosophy that this entrepreneur transmits (to my understanding), a phrase which summarizes one of the decisions taken along his intense professional career:

"In arvato mobile we found a partner that shares, understands and enriches our concept of innovative forms of interactivity.”

In conclusion, I got the impression of a person with clear ideas that have pleasantly surprised me.  It is admirable that a person that began as a programmer, can mature to create and direct several businesses related to new technologies, some in the mobile sector, culminating with the creation and management of a venture capital fund.
