Sean Parker And Shervin Pishevar At Le Web: If You Dont Fail, You Havent Tried Hard Enough (Video)

Last week at Le Web, Alexia interviewed Sean Parker and Shervin Pishevar onstage in what turned out to be one of the most-buzzed about sessions. Here is the full video for your weekend watching pleasure. It's a great discussion that ranges across the state of startups, venture capital, music, and politics .Parker bemoans the surplus of venture capital for its effect of diluting the talent in the tech industry, a point he's made before. "It prevents the aggregation of talent around great ideas," he says. He emphasizes the need for a great team from the get-go. "People are the greatest asset class," Pishevar agrees. The conversation quickly turns to Gowalla, which recently was acquired by Facebook, and why it failed to take on Foursquare. "If you don't fail, you haven't tried hard enough," says Pishevar.
