>A company that uses software automation to increase efficiency and improve margins at scale (thereby scaling non-linearly).
WeWork probably qualifies then. With sufficient scale they could bring technology to bear in order to increase utilization of office space. Especially to global companies that have ever changing needs for office space around the world.
Of course, WeWork hasn't (AFAICT) accomplished that but theoretically they could.
- gumby 5y agoWell theoretically any company could do anything, so I suppose they are all tech, and all train companies too.
- treis 5y agoOne of the FAANGs started as a bookstore. So yeah, pretty much anything can turn into a tech company.
- gumby 5y agoIt was a tech business from the beginning. The tech they had to develop back then is free and commonplace these days so someone doing the same today wouldn’t count as “tech” imho.
