According to foreign media reports, venture capital firms in recent weeks has been in the forefront of moral criticism. Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, the company won the Ellen Pao sex discrimination case in, but the testimony in the trial is made of a woman is not particularly popular with top vc impression. Also often exist in the society women entrepreneurial success must sell hue malicious remarks.

If we can get rid of them, just according to the judgment of recognize itself and its advantages, the world will be more beautiful."
