Elon Musk: Revolutionary innovation is driven by small, dedicated teams, not by big companies.
“Big companies are not very good at revolutionary innovation.
They're okay when it comes to incremental things here and there, but they have a real problem with taking the next leap forward.
Somebody needs to lead the way. A smaller company needs to lead the way.
We have to appreciate what is really the constraint. Is the constraint a quantity of resources? It's not the quantity of resources.
Is there a small, very talented, focused, dedicated team that's willing to take the risks and make something happen?
That's the scarce commodity, not money. The world is awash in money.”
