I think transport companies are doing largely beneficial work. They're making cars, airplanes, spacecraft safer and more efficient. This was my former field, and it was great to hear a story of how one customer used our product to rescue family members from a volcano, or how people just found them safe and useful. Like it was clear that what we made actually added enjoyment/utility to their lives. You just don't hear people say things like "thank god for Facebook" like they do about their cars, or a good rice cooker. Agriculture has potential too. FarmLogs is helping farmers grow more efficiently, competing against the goliath Climate Corporation (Monsanto). Weather tech - for startups there's Dark Sky and ClimaCell, of course there are the big players like Weather Channel and NOAA. FlexPort has massive potential in overhauling global freight. I think in tech, meaningfulness is inversely correlated with sexiness at this point. Just focusing on industries with physical goods will yield markets that have less frivolity and pointlessness than say, social media.
