It's like Google is running its own business incubator. I wonder how Google practices and success rates compare to VC funding for startups. What is the distribution of lifetime of VC funded startups before the money supply gets cut off compared to Google projects?
- numbsafari 6y agoI often wonder if it's less Google running a business incubator and more a combined retention and PR program. Running these projects helps them retain talent, and it helps them create a lot of talk about stuff they are doing that isn't tracking your every move and invading your privacy.
- tomekjapan 6y agoStill would be interesting to know whether it's more likely for a Google project to survive than it is for a startup.
