As a consultant this strategy is very smart, very stupid for a company tho.
1) Consultant goes to company and sells his new hot tech stack that is just released.
2) Company buys in and pays a lot of money.
3) Consultant now is locked himself a nice position because nobody wants to deal with this technology and he is the only expert they can get.
- meric 9y agoStartups might be willing to take this risk - if the new technology shortens the time to launch, then all the better. If it finds itself locked in 5 years down the line, who cares, it's 5 years later and they're a 100 million dollar company.
