Insights: Don’t look for first mover advantage
September 15th, 2008 by Benjamin KuoOmid Rahmat, former publisher of Tom’s Guide Publishing, has just added a new article to our Insights & Opinions section, entitle Don’t look for first mover advantage. Rahmat takes a slightly contrarian view of “innovation” and gives some business advice to entrepreneurs.
Microsoft didn’t invent the OS, Google didn’t invent search, Facebook didn’t make social networking, and Apple didn’t come up with WIMP, digital music, or mobile phones all on its own. Every entrepreneur looking to succeed should think seriously about how far ahead of the curve they want to be these days.
