Financial Forum Issues: Sebastian Mallaby on The Power Law: Venture Capital and the Making of the New Future
2023-03-02 12:00 - 13:00 | Virtual
Innovations rarely come from “experts.” When it comes to improbable innovations, a legendary tech venture capitalist told Sebastian Mallaby, the future cannot be predicted, it can only be discovered. It is the nature of the venture-capital game that most attempts at discovery fail; very few succeed, and on such a scale that they more than make up for everything else. That extreme ratio of success and failure is the power law that drives the VC business, all of Silicon Valley, the wider tech sector, and, by extension, the world.
In The Power Law, Sebastian Mallaby has parlayed unprecedented access to the most celebrated venture capitalists of all time—the key figures at Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins, Accel, Benchmark, and Andreessen Horowitz, as well as such Chinese partnerships as Qiming and Capital Today—into a riveting blend of storytelling and analysis that unfurls the history of tech incubation, in the valley and ultimately worldwide. We learn the unvarnished truth, often for the first time, about some of the most iconic triumphs and infamous disasters in valley history, from the comedy of errors at the birth of Apple to the avalanche of venture money that fostered hubris at WeWork and Uber.

Choice in Dying: Current Legal, Policy, and Ethical Issues
2023-03-20 13:00 - 17:00 | Zoom
Many patients, particularly at the end of life, do not receive quality care. Palliative and hospice care are not often provided in a timely manner, if at all. Additionally, the healthcare wishes of patients are often not honored, and dying patients may receive interventions they never wanted. Patients who experience intolerable suffering may not know of options that could reduce their suffering and allow them to die with dignity, in accordance with their values and wishes. In order to make informed decisions about end-of-life care, patients must be given information about the expected benefits and burdens of proposed interventions, as well as the consequences of changing the focus of care to comfort. This class will present legal options that permit patients control over the timing of their own death, including voluntarily stopping eating and drinking (VSED). Social workers can play an important role as catalysts for better quality care for patients at the end of life to ensure that their healthcare wishes are respected.
Four continuing education hours will be offered upon completion of the course.
