Education And Behavior: An Interview With PAIRIN CEO Michael Simpson

“I recently found myself at Village Capital’s Education US 2016 Launch.  If you have no idea what that is, you’re not alone; neither did I.  About a month earlier, I had found this event on eventrbrite, it was free, it had the words “capital” and “networking” in it, and so I signed up.  At least, that’s what I think happened, based on the detective work I did after a reminder to attend popped up in my calendar and I thought, what is this?!   I had no idea what to expect.  Was this going to teach me about venture capital?  Was it a grand opening for a business?  Is this some sort of network marketing scheme?  I had no idea.  I was reasonably sure there would be free food and drink.  Armed with that knowledge, I stepped into the unknown.”
