Yours Truly is Opening Act for TiE MN "How Did You Do It" Series

Just a quick post to mention that I'll be delivering a brief presentation as an opening act for Phil Soran, CEO of Minnesota-grown Compellent, which was just recently acquired by Dell for (...GASP...) $960 Million.

TiE Minnesota is kicking off a series called "How Did You Do It," which showcases successful entrepreneurs and asks them to explain how they got to where they are.

In addition to the "successful" entrepreneur, TiE will be inviting a "start-up" entrepreneur to kick things off with a short presentation of what life is like in the beginning, when the thought of a $960M exit provides extreme motivation, but sometimes feels impossible to achieve.

(In case it wasn't obvious, I'm the "start-up" in this equation!)
