“We simply have to stop using fossil fuels!”
An Alum Acclaims NSE’s Focus on Science, Systems and Society
Ray Rothrock (SM ’78) didn’t set out to be a venture
capitalist, but the moribund nuclear industry of the 1980s drove him and
many of his fellow nuclear engineering students into alternative career
paths. After participating in several Silicon Valley startups, he
joined pioneering VC firm Venrock, leading over 50 company investments
since 1988 and rising to managing general partner; the big appeal, he
says, is “working with young people and seeing their ideas come into
reality.”http://web.mit.edu/nse/news/spotlights/2014/rothrock.html
