Have you ever noticed how big companies often play it safe?
There’s a reason why some of the most impactful innovations — from the Founding Fathers to the "traitorous eight" at Fairchild Semiconductor — didn’t come from the corporate giants.
Peter Thiel explains it well: large organizations are often too tied up in politics and risk aversion. Meanwhile, solo geniuses can create great art, but not industries.
The magic? It’s in the small, mission-driven teams that find a balance — what Thiel calls the largest group of people you can convince to build a different future.
That’s why startups matter so much.
They combine the agility of an individual with the power of a group, making them uniquely capable of challenging entrenched players and reshaping industries.
What do you think? Can larger companies ever innovate at the same level?
