シリコンバレーによろしく: 数字で見るシリコンバレーのマフィア達、Googleは15年間で2123人の人材、1167社の企業を生み出した

http://svjapan.blogspot.com/2013/11/google1521231167.html

シリコンバレーでは、特定の組織に留まることなく、起業家、投資家という立場から次々に新たなプロダクトや企業を創り上げていく人材を、その出身組織の名を取って◯◯マフィアと称します。( 前回のエントリ. 今回は、マフィアとして度々記事などに取り上げられる、Google、Facebook、PayPal、Twitterのマフィア達を紹介していきます。以下、 Angel List. から各企業の卒業生数、彼らが創業した企業数のデータを引っ張ってきて、単純に比較してみました。 ここでいう卒業生は、その組織に在籍していたことがあり、現在創業者、投資家、アドバイザー、役員などの形で別の組織に関わっている人を指します。また、本来なら各企業の従業員数を考慮して比較すべきなのですが、各フェーズ毎の従業員数のデータを集めることが. また、４社の卒業生が創業した企業の合計は3013社！一部ファウンダーが重複してるスタートアップもありますが、15年の間で3000社以上のスタートアップをこの４社が生み出したと考えるとすごいですね。 1、イーロン・マスク(Elon Musk). マックスは、Paypalの創業者でCTOだっ...
