2001 disruption innovation 
Both Sides of the Table

The founder of Parachute, Ariel Kaye , had a clear vision for what she wanted to disrupt and how she thought she could do it. I will avoid talking about Ring (for obviously reasons) but can return to how Jamie built an amazing business in a future post. and thumbing through undifferentiated products in plastic wrapping.

These days that’s not the case and it’s a great outcome for entrepreneurs and for innovation. I discussed it in my post on the topic linked above. ** One small note: many VCs who got into the industry in 2001 or later have never seen a “carry&# check. So in the past we needed VC to really get a startup going.

I spoke about how Amazon Web Services deserves far more credit for the last 5 years of innovation than it gets credit for and how I believe they spawned the micro-VC category. An obvious example is Google who may have gotten less market attention if there would have been 8 well-financed competitors during the 2001-2005 timeframe.

Today, disruption is rather slow-paced. Startups are known to disrupt the markets, and this disruption usually ends up in developing totally new demand for its offerings.

Generation Z are the newest additions to the workforce and are described as universal, innovative and open-minded as well as those who value diversity, individuality, creativity and personalization. Breakdown of workforce by generation : Traditionalists (1925-1945) = 2%. Baby boomers (1946- 1964) = 25%.

The world around us is being disrupted by the acceleration of technology into more industries and more consumer applications. In 2001 companies IPO’d very quickly if they were working, by 2011 IPOs had slowed down to the point that in 2013 Aileen Lee of Cowboy Ventures astutely called billion-dollar outcomes “unicorns.”

In the United Kingdom and Europe, government innovation programs have helped entrepreneurs close higher numbers of Series A and B rounds. Since the pandemic disrupted the social rhythms of work and school, many of us have compensated by changing our relationship to digital media. Image Credits: Acquia.
