"I liked the diversity in the room, on the investor and entrepreneurial sides. There is a clear desire to build and fund great businesses, and create lots of value in the process. Getting there, however, will require a balance of discipline and commitment on one hand, and creativity and embracing change on the other. All of these traits were evident." - Arie Abecassis, Director, Thomson Financial Ventures
