 "A recession is the best time to start a company.
  The opportunity cost is low, hiring good people
  is relatively easy, rent and equipment are cheap
  (sometimes free) and established competitors are
  focused on reducing costs and staying in
  business, not on innovation. The key is being in
  a good position when the economy picks up."

  (early phase of mobile computing) and a
  recession was shriveling the economic outlook."

  - Chris Shipley
    Chairman, Guidewire Group
