I'm curious, if not startups, where do you expect innovation to come from? The things startups do are usually too high risk for large corporations to take on.
- makerdiety 3y agoNo civilization is entitled to technological innovation and economic growth just because it demands it. You have to engineer that goal into reality. And if you want risk-taking startups and entrenched corporations to work together, you are going to have to devise a communist style government or something. The free markets would just forgo national gross domestic product maximization and line up their own little pockets, free from the top-down authoritarianism required to organize large scale techno-economic activity. The Roman empire started out as two little baby boys and a momma wolf's teats. Good luck replicating that evolution from zero to hero without the right framework.
