Tippecanoe Valley High School’s sports & entertainment marketing class just started a new program where they chat via webcam with important business folks. To kick things off, these kids got to spend over forty minutes with Valve boss Gabe Newell.
What’s great is not just the fact he spared the time to chat with the students, but that he really gets into it, getting into the details of how Valve runs as a business, as well as talking about the creation and management of games like DOTA 2 and Team Fortress 2.
If you think it’s a fluke or a waste that these kids got the chance to speak with him, you’re wrong. They ask some great questions of Newell, who let’s not forget, has these days very quietly become one of the richest and most powerful men in video games.
