I've been meaning to post this for the entrepreneur monkeys since I first saw it three weeks ago. This is a dynamite (and hilarious) presentation by Guy Kawasaki at the Berkeley Haas School of Business for their Startup Competition. He really cuts to the chase and anyone interested in Lean Startup methodology will definitely learn something here. He eviscerates a couple of morons during the Q&A too, so there's that. Some of his best advice? The 10-20-30 Rule for pitching venture capitalists: 10 slides, no longer than a 20-minute presentation, 30-point font so the geezers can read the slides. Gold.

“... I believe it was the single biggest reason why I ended up with an offer...”
enjoyed so much, even though not into entrepreneurship myself. thanks Edmundo
@Tyler I like Kawasaki's rule of thumb: take the oldest guy in the room and divide his age by 2; that's your font size.
Looking forward to watching this at lunch. Also reminds me I haven't checked out Guy's blog in a while...
great video, thanks for sharing.
I wonder how many job offers his son got after this lecture.
Speaking of startup competitions- came across this today. Looks like there is some shady business going on at the NYU Stern competition (coincidence that it has a similar Berkley name): http://nyunews.com/2013/04/09/stern/
