Eubanks has been at Oblix, an Internet identity authentication, management and security provider, for more than one year and recently sat down with Mercury News reporters and editors to discuss recent valley trends and what he has in store for Oblix.

Innovation is a difficult thing to define, let alone measure.
I think there's a good feeling that we're innovating because we're continuing to create value, we're continuing to have satisfied customers. My comment is that the whole focus on wealth vs. a focus on why businesses exist in the first place doesn't help the majority of businesses. Now, they may be able to innovate, but I think there's a cost. It's a healthier environment when people are focusing on really celebrating their wins through the customers' eyes, instead of celebrating the wins in the stock market. We compensate employees in Silicon Valley through stock options.
