The Angel's Angle With Basil Peters


Basil Peters

Veteran serial entrepreneur and angel investor Basil Peters has been a co-founder, CEO or Chairman of more than a dozen high-growth, wireless, broadband, e- business and software companies. If you haven't lost sleep over payroll, he says, don't bother sitting on an early stage company's board.

Sincerely,
Kemila Velan
Editor
