The eBay Class Of 2000-2005: Where They Are Now And Why We Should Care

Editor?s note:?Sergio Monsalve?is a Partner at?Norwest Venture Partners?where he?is focused on early and growth investments in?e-commerce, consumerized SaaS, consumer finance, and educational technologies.? As a venture capital investor, I look for disruptive companies with breakthrough technologies, and -- most importantly -- I look for highly talented teams. In the e-commerce space, I keep coming back to the talent that came out of eBay during the 2000-2005 time period to find the best leaders that are now creating the next generation of successful companies (both early and late stage). I was a part of eBay?s New Ventures and Category Management team during this time and worked closely with a stellar group of early e-commerce pioneers. This was a particularly important and successful time for eBay for a variety of reasons, especially when it comes to high-caliber talent acquisition.
