Last Thursday night in San Francisco, we hosted more than 40 of Silicon Valley’s top CEOs for our quarterly CEO dinner. The theme of the dinner was the “mobile web,” and our guest speakers were Tom Conrad, chief technology officer of Pandora (one of our portfolio companies) and Satya Patel, vice president of product at Twitter.

My Partner Glenn put together a nice recap of the key themes from the dinner on his blog.

We also distributed a short presentation with some relevant data on the mobile / apps / Internet sector. Much of it is data readily available on the web, but some interesting data that clearly outline the key trends (some of which Glenn talks about in his post). Here is the deck:
