Description
Steve Jurvetson, Managing Director of Draper Fisher Jurvetson (DFJ), explains that VC firms are supposed to think first about maximizing investment return for investors--but they also have a perfect opportunity to change the world through entrepreneurs. When DFJ evaluates an opportunity, they look at whether it extends lives, makes a sustainable planet, provides better energy with renewables, and even narrows the rich/poor gap, he says.
