******************************** Cautionary Tales - Plus Encouragement - from Three Veteran Entrepreneurs http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/index.cfm?fa=viewfeature&id=1118 While a bold idea, unflagging determination and patient financial backers are all crucial to successful start-ups, entrepreneurs must also focus on less dramatic aspects of running a company, according to seasoned entrepreneurs who addressed the 8th Annual Wharton Entrepreneurship Conference on Dec. 3.

Citron, co-founder and chief executive of Vonage Holdings, David Morgan, founder of Real Media and currently chief executive of TACODA, and Josh Kopelman, founder of Infonautics and Half.com.
