Oldest living start-up tells all | CNET News.com: "The nugget of innovation that semiconductor company RFco is trying to commercialize has its roots in the mid-1990's. The search for venture financing took more than two years, and the company's top five executives are all about 60 years old.
'This is probably the oldest start-up ever funded,' said Rich Forte, 60, the chief executive of RFco.
Jim Kubinec, the 63-year-old chief technology officer, recalls being recruited to Fairchild Semiconductor in 1964 by Robert Noyce, co-inventor of the integrated circuit and later a founder of Intel. A Stanford-educated electrical engineer, Kubinec at the time left a job at Lockheed to take a chance on the fledgling semiconductor business"
