Profil
Rick Lazansky is a serial entrepreneur, active investor, and coach of many startups.

Rick has invested in more than 40 startups as an angel investor with Sand Hill Angels and as an LP in several venture funds.
He had coached startup projects and classes at Stanford, Carnegie Mellon University, UC Santa Cruz and Berkeley.
His startups include Vantage Analysis Systems, Denali Software, and RedSpark.
