  I don't have enough information to say, but faster iteration is a solid bet. Plus better visibility into technical feasibility and cost, which leads to doing technical daring things as soon as they become possible. This becomes an unfair advantage fast for the tech startups, as the MBA crowd gets their tech bearings mostly from monthly magazines which are years beyond the state of the art. This means they only do tech things once they are common practice, so they'll never have a tech advantage. As an engineer, I'm biased, of course, but this looks to me like: tech founders have to learn some biz, marketing and management skills, which is feasible, to be able to judge business opportunities and execute on them. The MBA crowd already knows how to do this, but they need to learn tech skills, in order to judge tech opportunities and execute on them, which is harder for them. Edited for spelling.
