I couldn?t resist it. When I bumped into Highland Capital General Partner Peter Bell at Fast Company?s Innovation Uncensored event last week, I had to slip in a question about the equality of opportunity in Silicon Valley. Bell, who is based in Menlo Park, didn?t shy away from this tricky issue. ?Totally," he replied, Silicon Valley is a ?natural meritocracy.? Unlike many more buttoned-down VCs, Bell was refreshingly frank in all his opinions. Describing Facebook as a ?juggernaut," he believes it is ?unstoppable in the short-term?. He sees Google as being ?behind? on social media and argued that it needs to ?innovate? to become a real player in the social space. And while acknowledging that he sees a ?lot of crap? in the social space, he is optimistic about social applications in the enterprise, arguing that we are still in spring training when it comes to opportunities here.Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/QuIXMEqxZw8/
