Abstract

It is somewhat unusual to think of Silicon Valley as a center of innovation in management. The Valley is best known as a center of technology innovation, and as a hotbed for breeding startup companies. Indeed, those two aspects are often thought to be the keys to the region’s vitality. Economic specialists around the world have studied (and tried to replicate) the Valley’s long track record of developing new technologies and forming startups to bring the inventions to market. But while the process of building new companies around technology ideas is important, it’s only part of the story. Silicon Valley Is More Than a Startup Machine. The top innovators in Silicon Valley Could Not Do What They Do If They Were Managed Conventionally.
