It appears to me that UC has surrounded himself with people with good rep. at each important position. If so, then his own background is of less importance. As I said before, we all make mistakes learning how best to manage. Picking the right people is 100% of a CEOs job. If the three other companies are still behind this venture now, I say it looks very positive. Has anyone spoken with the three other companies CEOs or PR folks?? Why not?
