Hats off to Martin Varsavsky

I watched this video in which Martin Varsasky explains his entrepreneur background:
- Started Viatel and sold it for 1,2 billions euros
- Started Jazztel and sold it for 1 billions euros
- Started ya.com and sold it for 550 millions euros with 38 millions of investments

If anyone can think of a more successful european technology entrepreneur, I'd like to know ! There maybe a few who have sold ONE company for more but THREE in a row !!

Hats off Martin !

And no failures ? Talking about failures would help people understand and accept that taking great risks sometimes comes with great downside.

Thanks Mathieu. Just for the record, we sold Ya.com for 550 million after investing 38 million in it and 2 years of work...
