Fireside Chat with Michael Arrington – Startups Uncensored #23
This Startups Uncensored will be a one-on-one fireside chat with Michael Arrington, hosted by Docstoc CEO Jason Nazar.
Arrington is a serial entrepreneur and the founder of TechCrunch, the premiere news site covering startups and technology news. In September, Michael co-founded CrunchFund, an early stage venture capital firm. The fund invests in and works with information technology companies at any stage but is primarily focused on seed and early stage investments.
Arrington attended Stanford Law School (JD, 1995), and practiced as a corporate and securities lawyer at two law firms: O’Melveny & Myers and Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati. His clients included idealab, Netscape, Pixar, Apple and a number of startups, venture funds and investment banks. Arrington founded and ran two companies in Canada (Zip.ca and Pool.com), was COO to a Kleiner-backed company called Razorgator, and consulted to other companies, including Verisign. He also co-authored a book on initial public offerings.
In May 2008, Time Magazine named Michael Arrington as one of the world’s 100 most influential people.
Michael will be discussing is experience as an entrepreneur, including his time with TechCrunch, as well as his experience as an investor through CrunchFund. He’ll also be sharing his thoughts and insights on the state of technology and how to build successful tech companies.
We will also be joined by Yossi Vardi, co-founder of ICQ, who will be bringing a delegation of 15 companies from Israel. Vardi is one of Israel’s first high-tech entrepreneurs. For over 40 years he has founded and helped to build over 60 high-tech companies in a variety of fields, among them software, energy, Internet, mobile, electro-optics and water technology.

| Dear Victor,
Charlie’s experience became the inspiration for the Blue Note Fund, an important fund dedicated to helping patients and their families pay the rent, utilities, or even put food on the table. “I am so proud to partner with the Colon Cancer Alliance on the establishment of the Blue Note Fund in order to help make sure that your lights stay on, your phone stays connected and you keep your home. That’s what the Blue Note Fund is about, helping to take care of your bills, so you can take care of yourself,” said Charlie, Fund co-creator and a Colon Cancer Alliance Board Member. Please learn more about the Blue Note Fund and get involved today. The high costs of cancer treatment combined with a loss of income can lead to financial hardship but you can help. Consider making a donation today to help provide hope in a new way to patients and their families. Sincerely, Andrew Spiegel

Treatment with antineoplastons can be very costly to patients without insurance coverage, exceeding $100,000 for the first year of intravenous treatment. Many insurance companies consider antineoplaston therapy to be investigational and unproven and do not cover the cost.
Texas Board of Medical Examiners – What a corrupt organization trying to stop Dr. Burzynski from treating patients who have cancer. This is nonsense!
Then tried to raise to a higher court. What a bunch of beuaracrats.
To the Texas court.
The FDA was behind trying to revoke the license of Dr. Burzynski! Why?
