More quotes by Steve Case

Steve Case
At the end of the day, the team you build is the company you build.

Steve Case
In the entrepreneurial world, when you launch a company, you have a particular idea, a particular product, a particular service, almost always you pivot, you shift. The market reacts to your initial idea. You make some adjustments. It's only after making a few adjustments that you see the success.
Steve Case
And what we did with this new company in 1985 is we did start focusing on PCs instead of video game machines, because we learned the hard lesson about bringing a product to market in a consumer world where it's very expensive to build a brand and get distribution and so forth.
Steve Case
The idea that maybe you don't have to own a car if you only need one occasionally may catch on, just like time-sharing caught on in real estate
Steve Case
All great ideas start as weird ideas. What now seems obvious, early on, is not obvious to anybody.
Steve Case
Five or ten years ago, when it was clear the Internet was becoming a mainstream phenomenon, it was equally clear that a lot of people were being left out and could be left behind
Steve Case
[On swinging for the fences] Ultimately, you have the potential to build a significant business with the potential to have a positive impact on millions of people's lives.
Steve Case
The only way to continue to have a robust economy is to out-innovate other nations.
Steve Case
In the end, a vision without the ability to execute it is probably a hallucination.
