It might not be true that everything Rick Klau touches turns to gold, but you could forgive people for thinking so. Rick runs the Startup Lab at Google Ventures, where he connects companies in which Google invests with resources at the company. After law school, Rick worked at Feedburner before it was acquired by Google. At Google, he has worked on some brands you’ve heard of: Blogger, Google+, Google Scholar, and YouTube. He also ran the campaign weblog for 2004 Senate candidate Barack Obama. Maybe everything he touches does turn to gold?
