Visible Measures Blog

For those of you who have known about Visible Measures for some time now, you probably know that MIT Professor Ed Roberts has been a huge help to us from the very beginning. From the time when I spent six weeks trying to just get a first meeting with Ed as a first year MBA candidate at the MIT Sloan School of Management, to the time when Ed wrote his first check as an angel investor in our seed round, to all of those times when he served as counsel, advisor, and friend to me and to our team, Ed has meant the world to us. He has been honored countless times, and recently added another award to his collection. Ed was honored as the fourth recipient of the annual Adolf F. Monosson Prize for Entrepreneurship Mentoring.

Seemingly whenever times got hardest, Ed was always there to lend a hand, an ear, or a shoulder to me and to our board when we needed him most. He is like a father figure to Visible Measures and to me personally, and I am very honored to know him.
