Financial services represents 20% of the world economy. The fintech revolution is only beginning. It will be embedded, global, and tackle financial inclusion.
The venture capital model works extraordinarily well for one type of startup in Silicon Valley. But does not extend to everyone, everywhere. New models are emerging.
Startup ecosystems are not built. They are grown. Taking lessons from ecosystems around the world, we can dive into practical strategies for local ecosystems.
As President Obama’s point person on entrepreneurship, I’ve seen firsthand diverse models, grounded in unique local strengths, for building innovation ecosystems and supporting entrepreneurial success. In Out-Innovate, Alex Lazarow provides an outstanding perspective on how startups and entrepreneurs can succeed no matter where they originate—in a mega city like Chicago or a more rural environment like Cedar Rapids.
Out-Innovate proves that frontier entrepreneurs face entirely different challenges than their Silicon Valley peers and that the canon of the Valley should no longer be taken as gospel. This book is a must-read for any entrepreneur building a business and any VC who doesn’t want to be left behind.
