セコイア・キャピタルが景気後退のなかを猛進する

That’s according to Greg McAdoo, partner at Sequoia capital, who spoke Saturday at Startup School, an event for entrepreneurs organized by Y Combinator at University of California, Berkeley. In front of a standing-room-only crowd, he repeated a common refrain among venture capitalists that recessions are great times to start companies and to invest in them.
Sequoia, considered one of the highest-caliber venture firms, is putting its money where its mouth is, unlike some firms, who meet with entrepreneurs and go through due diligence without telling them that they don’t plan to invest. Entrepreneurs should research which firms didn’t invest during the last dot-com downturn and be wary, McAdoo said.
