Inside Social Apps 2010: Investors Talk Big Acquisitions and Mixed Opportunities
Inside Social Apps 2010 ended today with a panel on investing opportunities in social applications and games. While most of the investors weren’t too bullish on the short-term opportunities for small developers, they do believe there are all sorts of short and long term opportunities.
The panelists:
Maha Ibrahim, General Partner, Canaan Partners
Nick Lawler, Managing Director, Maverick Capital
Rick Thompson, Co-founder, Playdom, and Investor
Tim Chang, Principal, Norwest Venture Partners
Atul Bagga, VP Equity Research, ThinkEquity (Moderator)
Bagga: Rick, you’ve been working in this space for years, can you share any more about your perspective today?
Thompson: Two years ago if we were here talking about 40% penetration rates, I would have been forced to sober up.
