Today we have the founder of AOL Steve Case.

Steve Case is one of America’s most renowned entrepreneurs and basically brought the internet into millions of american homes. 

While he was CEO of America Online, AOL was the world’s most valuable internet company, first to go public, and he oversaw the merger that created AOL Time Warner Inc. 

Today Steve serves as chairman and CEO of Revolution a Venture Capitalist firm based in DC and is active on Capitol Hill promoting legislation to help grow every part of the US into an entrepreneurial ecosystem. 

Steve said he is often influenced by a African proverb which says “if you want to go quickly you must go alone, if you want to go far you must go together”. 

Thus, in his interview, Steve discusses how his entrepreneurial career and the growth of AOL were influenced by partnerships and how other entrepreneurs can benefit from partnerships as well.
