Resumen del editor
Johannes Gutenberg was our first geek, the original technology entrepreneur, who had to grapple with all the challenges a Silicon Valley startup faces today. Jeff Jarvis tells Gutenberg's story from an entrepreneurial perspective, examining how he overcame technology hurdles, how he operated with the secrecy of a Steve Jobs, but then shifted to openness, how he raised capital and mitigated risk, and how, in the end, his cash flow and equity structure did him in. This is also the inspiring story of a great disruptor - which is what makes Gutenberg the patron saint of entrepreneurs.
Jeff Jarvis is the author of Public Parts: How Sharing in the Digital Age Improves the Way We Work and Live and What Would Google Do?: Reverse-Engineering the Fastest Growing Company in the History of the World. He directs the Tow-Knight Center for Entrepreneurial Journalism at the City University of New York Graduate School of Journalism.
Reseñas editoriales
Jeff Jarvis spent the first part of his career in print journalism, writing for publications such as the San Francisco Examiner and the New York Daily News. He became an early proponent of the open Internet and still works at the intersection of old and new media.
In this audiobook, Jarvis lends his enthusiastic and professorial voice to his own brief study of technological disruption, Gutenberg the Greek. Jarvis argues that Johannes Gutenberg - famed 15th-century inventor of the printing revolution - was the precursor and de facto role model of modern innovators such as Steve Jobs. < i>Gutenberg the Greek is a lesson in overcoming technological obstacles, recognizing opportunities, and mitigating risk, and listeners can enjoy its entirety on one 30-minute trek to the office.
