That's why it's a team sport. The mad genius doesn't need to have the social skills to sell the idea, build a team and run the company, he just needs to have enough to be able to work with people who can do all that for him. Besides money, helping to build that initial team is of the things where VCs can add tremendous value. The smart ones do that, instead of dismissing applicants for lack of social skills.
