I kind of think LA is just LA and doesn’t need some clever marketing term. A market leader in content, music, entertainment, textiles, engineering, aerospace and trade. World-class education including Caltech, USC and UCLA. And of course a place of idyllic weather, culture and a lifestyle. That’s OK with me.

I grew up in Thousand Oaks, went to USC, and we met each other way back in the 90's. We had courses together in college, and got to know each other on a deeper intellectual level, before we got to know each other socially. Thanks for the time today, it's great to get a chance to talk with you about your company. So, what is PeerStreet?

The effort--which Mike started along with Darren Rush (Koders.com), Jordan Mendler (CornerstoneOnDemand.com), and John Shiple (ultralivetv)--is hoping to market local startups to the many technical graduates coming out of local universities starting this fall. It's not for everybody, of course. What is Students4Startups all about?

But of course all of these things are intertwined. But putting no time into anchoring your beliefs because you’re too busy executing sales, marketing, support, product & engineering is an easy recipe for leadership drift.

The idea came to John Kolker at USC 1 year ago, then through start engine him and his partner were able to make their idea come to life. Golfers won’t have as many injuries and for golf courses, it gets people through the course earlier resulting in more customers.

If you look back, the original founder, Stephan studied at the USC Foreign School of Music, so there is a long standing connection with LA. All of our team consists of not only composers but also for example, Karl Moestl does the creative marketing and the artist relations for us. It seems like you have an extremely diverse team.

The best person I know to talk about the growing entrepreneurship culture on campuses is Alex Zhang, a student at USC and the Managing Director of the student-run incubator LavaLab. Many believe the same culture will be essential to the success of growing Southern California’s own startup culture.

Of course this can be done and of course I am a big proponent of the rise of startup centers across the country as the Internet has moved from the “infrastructure phase” to the “application phase” dominated by the three C’s: content, communications and commerce.

Those who didn’t get a ticket in time, turned to Zaarly where tickets sold on the SUW “grey-market” for up to $450 per ticket (this being up for discussion with potential upcoming policy changes). If Avesta sees someone drinking Coloft coffee (organic of course), he quickly asks if they’ve sold anything. Rob Maigret.

We have world-class universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and more. If you are talented, of course, you can get funded in any region with enough venture capital and obviously in markets outside of the Valley it is easier to get noticed and get access. And of course you have Hollywood. Hit some bumps in the road?
