Global companies can raise capital much easier than local Indian companies can because they have access to many more markets than we do, and this ends up distorting competition.

Bhavish Aggarwal

When the trust is high, you get the trust dividend. Investors invest in brands people trust. Consumers buy more from companies they trust, they spend more with companies they trust, they recommend companies they trust, and they give companies they trust the benefit of the doubt when things go wrong.

Stephen Covey

Companies that hire employees..that are deeply passionate create companies that customers are really really passionate about, and those are the companies that have strong brands.

When screening engineers from other companies, its smart to value engineers from great companies more than those from mediocre companies.

Ben Horowitz

I plan to eliminate regulations that hinder domestic companies, particularly large conglomerates from investing in other companies.
