Windows, Google, Apple, Facebook ab 2012

Zukunftsprognosen überzeugend dargestellt von Roger McNamee, Elevation Partners:


Bill Gates wrote in his book The Road Ahead:
"Roger was a great sounding board for many of the ideas I wrote about".

Mark Zuckerberg (who met McNamee in summer 2006 at a time when Facebook reportedly had buyout offers of around $750 million) said McNamee was "emphatic" that Facebook not be sold. Zuckerberg stated he "clearly cared about building something long-term and about the impact of the things we build as opposed to just making money in the short term".


Elevation Partners was founded by former Silver Lake Partners professionals Roger McNamee and Marc Bodnick, as well as Fred Anderson (Apple Inc.) and John Riccitiello (Electronic Arts). Elevation is best known for its association with Bono, lead singer of the musical group U2, who joined the company shortly after its creation in 2004. The firm is named after U2's song "Elevation".
