Innovation




Think Different.
Creativity, Failure, Iteration

•   Brainstorm new ideas & approaches (crazy!)
•   Try many experiments (be *fearless*)
•   MOST OF THEM WILL FAIL
•   But, a few will succeed
•   Iteration will improve success rates
•   Critical Mass, Network effects help
•   “Dance Like No One Is Watching”
FAILURE IS NECESSARY.
IT’S A PROCESS, NOT A PROBLEM
Failure = CRITICAL to Innovation
•   Failure not only tolerated, but ENCOURAGED
•   Success = Continued Iteration of Failure
•   Japan: Failure = Shame, Silence, Death
•   US/SV: Failure = Growth, Education, Shared
•   Celebrity Role Models for Failure
•   “Fall Down 7 Times, Get Up 8” = Fail Warrior!

                    http://slideshare.net/paulsingh/
moneyball-a-quantitative-approach-to-angel-investing-austin-tx-aug-2012

         1. Make Lots Of Little Bets
         2. Count Cards (Metrics)
         3. Double Down on Winners
“Lots of Little Bets”*
1) Make lots of little                                                 30%
  bets pre-traction,                                                 Capital
  early-stage startups



2) after 6-12 months, identify                                        70%
    top 20% performers and                                          Capital
    double-down higher $$$


3) conservative model assumes
-5-10% large exits @20X ($50-100M+)
-10-20% small exits @5X ($5-50M)

                                           *See Peter Sims book: “Little Bets”
Bet on Singles, Not HomeRuns.
 (Look for Ichiros, Not Barry Bonds)
The Lean VC:
           Lots of Little Bets, Incremental Investment

Method: Invest in lots of startups using incremental
 investment, iterative development. Start with many
 small experiments, filter out failures, and expand
 investment in successes… (Rinse & Repeat).

• Incubator: $0-100K (“Build & Validate Product”)
• Seed: $100K-$1M (“Test & Grow Marketing Channels””)
• Venture: $1M-$10M (“Maximize Growth & Revenue”)

    •   VC Evolution: Physician, Scale Thyself (Aug 2012)
    •   MoneyBall for Startups, 500 Startups Investment Thesis (Jul 2010)
Investment Stage #1:
  Product Validation + Customer Usage
• Structure
   – 1-3 founders
   – $25-$100K investment
   – Incubator environment: multiple peers, mentors/advisors


• Test Functional Prototype / “Minimum Viable Product” (MVP):
   –   Prototype->Alpha, ~3-6 months
   –   Develop Minimal Critical Feature Set => Get to “It Works! Someone Uses It.”
   –   Improve Design & Usability, Setup Conversion Metrics
   –   Test Small-Scale Customer Adoption (10-1000 users)

• Demonstrate Concept, Reduce Product Risk, Test Functional Use
• Develop Metrics & Filter for Possible Future Investment
Investment Stage #2:
   Market Validation + Revenue Testing
• Structure
   – 2-10 person team
   – $100K-$1M investment
   – Syndicate of Angel Investors / Small VC Funds


• Improve Product, Expand Customers, Test Revenue:
   –   Alpha->Beta, ~6-12 months
   –   Scale Customer Adoption => “Many People Use It, & They Pay.”
   –   Test Marketing Campaigns, Customer Acquisition Channels + Cost
   –   Test Revenue Generation, Find Profitable Customer Segments

• Prove Solution/Benefit, Assess Market Size
• Test Channel Cost, Revenue Opportunity
• Determine Org Structure, Key Hires
Investment Stage #3:
             Revenue Validation + Growth
• Structure
   – 5-25 person team
   – $1M-$10M investment
   – Seed & Venture Investors


• Make Money (or Go Big), Get to Sustainability:
   –   Beta->Production, 12-24 months
   –   Revenue / Growth => “We Can Make (a lot of) Money!”
   –   Mktg Plan => Predictable Channels / Campaigns + Budget
   –   Scalability & Infrastructure, Customer Service & Operations
   –   Connect with Distribution Partners, Expand Growth

• Prove/Expand Market, Operationalize Business
• Future Milestones: Profitable/Sustainable, Exit Options
Startup Incubators
  Lots of Little Bets. Most FAIL.
      (but a few succeed :)
Incubator 2.0: Fast, Cheap, FAIL
• Incubators = supportive startup ecosystem (+ angels, VCs)
• Efficient use of investment capital ($0-100K)
• High fail rate (60-80%) => large initial sample size
Incubator 2.0:
  Education, Collaboration, Iteration




• Success based on:
  –   MANY, small experiments
  –   common platforms, customers, problems & solutions
  –   physical proximity, open/collaborative environment
  –   Domain-specific mentors & expertise
  –   fast fail, iteration, metrics & feedback loop
• Incremental investment; high-risk, but high-reward
Resources Accelerators Can Provide
global networks,
mentors and staff



training and space




portfolio companies



conferences & events


                       37
Incubator Innovation
• Vertically-Focused Incubators:
  –   Facebook: fbFund
  –   Nike: Sensors / Wearables
