Bill, loved this. You packed a lot of great stuff in there. My wife, who is not even slightly interested in business, overheard it and wandered over and sat as mesmerized as I was.
Bill, That was just brilliant. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and guidance. Am coming, from India to Southern Calif, this summer and will try and get some time at IdeaLab with you.
Knowing these attributes is useful for thinking critically. However, don't limit your thinking to this. The set of opportunities is larger than what can be explained and predicted by these attributes.
Terrific insights ! Imagine if one has to pay for such clear-headed experienced leader to tell you something like this, how much would you pay !! One thought - Timing is most important and it is absolutely clear now - but wondering that isn't timing part of the core idea itself ? All the great ideas are seeded with time or timing. Some timing aspects can be only appreciated in hind-sight (like recession in case of AirBnB) but generally all ideas are more about timing (Need of the hour solution).

This should be required reading for anyone starting a business.
I visited Idealab in November 2006. Memorable experience!
Well, the truths seem self-evident ... now! Thank you, Bill, for the analysis and for the thought-provoking presentation of your insights.
This video ages well. Thanks to Bill Gross.
