For rry ge, phabet spells “moonshot.”

That was the overarching subject of the first sit-down in a while for the CEO of the freshly-christened phabet, ’s new parent company. He chatted with an at the Fortune Global Forum to talk about where he sees the company going forward with its new structure increasingly diverse focus. 

In the rather wide-ranging interview he spoke most passionately about oject on, the company’s effort to bring the Internet to large swaths of l where there is no access.

“Think about how cellphones have changed your life. Think about how they could change the lives of billions of people,” he said.

ivacy is always a hot topic for . Not surprisingly, ge thinks some attitudes need to shift in regards to how we think about private information. As an example, he cited the difficulty that some university researchers have in performing genomic research.

“’ve gotten so hung up on privacy,” he said. 

He also talked Steve bs, who has been the subject of multiple film releases lately. oking back he said bs was correct that was pulled in too many directions, which was part of the thought process that led him to push for the creation of phabet.

He wants the “moonshot” mindset to stay, however, as phabet should be “a company for entrepreneurs” that focuses on creative thinking.

y this matters: This brief talk explains quite a bit about why ge decided to re-arrange into the umbrella company phabet. He wants the company to be an innovator in multiple areas, which goes far beyond ’s efforts in search, Android, Chrome. This empowers him to pursue a wide number of interests, with pumping out the cash to fund potentially crazy experiments. So far, investors have been pretty happy with the move, but it’s an interesting experiment to watch over time.
