Крупные компании* просто физически не могут делать инновации и совершать прорывы потому что они не могут рисковать:
* Taking risks that cannot be quantified
* Addressing a profitable niche
* Doing delightful, valuable things that don’t scale
* Unsurpassed customer service
* Leveraging new technology
* Having an opinionated personality
* Doing things that aren’t zero-sum
* Being worse-but-acceptable in most dimensions
* Being low-cost against a profit center
* иногда всё-таки способны, но для этого выделяются стартапо-подобные структуры.
Но, зато, крупные компании могут поглощать стартапы или выкатывать альтернативные решения для проверенной бизнес-модели:
Bezos: As you might imagine, I often get asked by young entrepreneurs for advice on how to start a business. What many seem to want is some sort of trick, some magic set of tools that will allow them to launch a thriving startup from scratch. Well, there’s no magic involved, but the keys to success are quite simple: Value your customers, hire well, find a market that isn’t being served, and realize that someday I will utterly crush you.
That’s really all there is to it. Execute the basics correctly and you’ll be in great shape when I come along and rip away your dreams with one emotionless pen stroke.
Иногда гиганты не могут ничего сделать не смотря на "практически неограниченные" ресурсы:
Meta has every Advantage you could possibly imagine. They have so much money, that Zuckerberg could flush down $40 billion on creating the shittiest VR experience ever known to humans and just go like poof: that didn't happen. That's how much money they have. So they have essentially unlimited funds, they have a user base of two billion users on their other platforms. With all of that blowing all of it into it and exceptional Engineers. I'm sure the people who build Instagram goes over on on thread like every single Advantage you could line up. If you were like: oh let's imagine everything you could do and still you could not unseat sort of the main thing when all you tried to do was being exactly that thing but like just a little bit different and not even different in any appreciable way just like a spiritual difference of it's Zuckerberg the billionaire owning it rather than Elon Musk the billionaire owning it. Like that's just not a differentiation anyone gives them Hoot about. So I thought that was just such a beautiful illustration of the fact. Do you know what if Zuckerberg and the rest of meta with all those advantages can't make it happen there is no chance in hell that you will ever be able to outdo say Twitter being 5% different or anything else being 5% different once it's ingrained.
